Make Pullman a golf cart community

Pullman might be significantly improved it turned into a golf cart community, where electric-powered golf carts would be allowed on all city streets.

By having a maximum speed limit of 15 mph and speed bumps on all streets, Pullman would be a community where golf carts could safely mix with larger vehicles on the same roadways.

Residents could set up solar battery charging stations for thier carts without having to use the 60-cycle, 110-volte electricity available from Avista.

A community using a substantial amount of power from independent solar charging stations in their backyards — hypothetically — would lower the carbon footprint and reduce commercially delivered electricity.

An ongoing direction of purpose that moves toward zero greenhouse gases and phasing out of the electric power grid could reduce the need for large, unsightly wind turbines.

Pullman would benefit by becoming an electric golf cart community.
