First of all, The Villages has more money than God. IF they wanted to do it they could. Since they are currently in the process changing all the ELECTRONICS (EXCEPT THE PADS) with larger storage to hold more photos and the larger card number database at every gate due to the large increase of population they could have changed the readers at the same time for a few hundred bucks each IF they wanted to that would ALSO allow other types of cards such as the ones you could use like a SunPass or EZpass on the widow or under the hood to give folks the ***OPTION*** of using the sticker that can be read at the gates ***IF*** the particular user chose to. They could easily get $10 for each sticker from the user to cover some of the costs. They had been doing that for well over 20 years at my late Father's condo. Of course they only have 4 gates but their population is about 5% of that of The Villages so it is all proportional in the amount of revenue available.
