Math:

$50 per resident. There are approximately 150,000 residents in The Villages.

150,000 * 50 = $7,500,000 revenue to off-set the expense of the new system. I've never priced out new systems at pools but - maybe seven and a half million dollars would be enough to cover it? The cards themselves only cost a dollar when you buy them in bulk, uncoded.
