I spoke to an employee with the Property Management division about this topic a few months ago, when the gate at our village was being taken out nearly every week. He said there is an employee in the office who tracks down people who damage the gates, and they send them a bill for the damages. According to him, replacing just the gate arm was a $300 charge. Well over $1,000 if the motor and/or control box is damaged.
