Your vehicle insurance coverage
Providing Local Style Rentals with your insurance information DOES NOT guarantee insurance coverage.
It is the Renter’s sole responsibility to ensure liability coverage and property damage with the renter’s auto insurance company before signing the rental agreement.
The renter is responsible for ALL liability and damages that may result while operating a Local Style Rentals street-legal golf cart, also known as a Low-Speed Vehicle (LSV).
It is refundable, if you......
Do you want the deposit back?
The owners have confirmed no parking violations.
The cart was rinsed and cleared of trash. Cover the front charging ports before rinsing the cart.
The cart is fully charged and plugged in
The owners confirmed no damage, and the cart is in working order.
The key must be returned to the lock box on your last rental day. A lost or damaged key is $75.
How to avoid a parking ticket.
Our golf cart comes with a pre-paid parking pass.
Fines will be issued even with a residential parking pass if you do not follow the parking rules.
Any fines issued are your responsibility to pay before your check-out date. Deposits will be returned once we confirm no fines were issued during your stay.
At spaces marked by BUMPERS: Vehicles must be parked straight, forward facing & centered at either a YELLOW or BLUE (handicapped) parking bumper (sometimes referred to as a “curb,” “stub,” or “stop block”).
Parking is not permitted in unmarked or right-of-way (streetside) areas.
All unmarked areas in the Paid Parking Zone are assumed to be a “no parking” area; the absence of “No Parking” signage does not indicate parking is allowed.
CITATION FINES, PAYMENT, & DISPUTE
Parking tickets are civil citations issued as a physical note affixed to the windshield. No direct vehicle owner notification has been provided. If applied to a rental vehicle, it is up to the vehicle owner and driver to establish and agree upon personal notification responsibility if a ticket is issued.
PARKING FINES
$25 if paid on the same day by Midnight (NOTE: this discount only applies to violations within a valid parking zone but without a valid parking permit. All other citations are ticketed at the full $50 rate.)
$50 if paid within the following 30 days
$75 if paid after 30 days (after 45 days, unpaid citations will be referred to a collection agency)
$250 fine for Special Violations – these include parking within 15 feet of / or blocking a Fire Hydrant, Fire Lane, or Emergency Access (Section 28-42.8.6), and parking in a designated handicap space without proper license plate or hangtag (Section 28-42.8.7)
Zip the sides but wait, there's a catch...
Weather Enclosure Instructions
Our 6-passenger golf carts are equipped with a full weather enclosure for your comfort.
To properly close the enclosure:
Unroll all sides.
Start each zipper about 6 inches on all sections.
Once all sides are started, go back and fully zip each panel.
Secure the enclosure by clipping it to the bottom of the cart to prevent flapping.
When not in use:
Roll up each side and fasten it securely to the top of the cart.
