Commissioner Gusta Biles of the City of West Miami opened the meeting and told residents, "Did you know that you can drive a golf cart on all of the residential streets within the city?" Commissioner Juan Blas repeated the guidance and added that "as long as you stay within the inner City Street, you can have a golf cart," urging residents to contact City Hall for more information.
The remarks were delivered as part of the commissioners' opening comments rather than as a formal agenda item; the transcript contains no citation of a specific ordinance or a recorded vote to change traffic rules. Both commissioners presented the information as guidance to residents and directed people who need clarification to City Hall.
Because the two commissioners spoke during opening remarks and did not identify a statute, ordinance number or other legal authority, residents seeking to know where and how the rule applies should verify details with City Hall. The commissioners' comments emphasized neighborhood familiarity and community interaction more than regulatory specifics.
The meeting continued after the opening remarks; no formal motions, amendments or votes related to golf-cart rules appear in the transcript.
