No, not at the gate under discussion. There is a gate on the historic side, golf carts only, that outsiders in golf carts would like to use to enter the Villages. It only operates with a resident pass. No red button.

The general public have been using our golf courses in the late evening and our pools all day long. They do not pay for the amenities, and have no right to use them.

They are welcome to come in their cars to the squares to see the entertainment, to eat in restaurants, to shop in stores. Executive golf, pools, rec centers, and other amenities are for residents and their documented guests only. Even the cart paths are maintained with our amenity fees.

So when a Village employee comes to the pool and asks to see everyone's Village ID, be glad. They are protecting your investment.
