…body
EXPLANATION: Versailles at Wellington Homeowners Association, Inc. has requested that the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office patrol the roads within the Versailles at Wellington subdivision for the purposes of enforcing moving traffic. Currently, the Sheriff’s Office cannot patrol the roads and enforce traffic regulations in the Versailles at Wellington community because the roads therein are private.
In accordance with our policy, the Versailles at Wellington Homeowners Association, Inc. had an engineering study conducted to ensure that all traffic markings, signals and signs were in accordance with the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD). The study determined that traffic controls meet applicable federal, state and local standards, including the MUTCD (letter attached).
Section 316.006(2), Florida Statutes, provides that the Village may exercise traffic and/or parking control jurisdiction over private roads by written agreement (attached).
