Abuses can only occur if someone is not doing their job (see Requirements below) by stopping 30 day renewals where not warrented as your example above and if residents allow it to happen.

From the Village Community Development Districts Guest ID Card Program Policy at the following address: https://gcs.thevillages.com/policy2.

Eligibility Requirements:
A resident with a valid Resident ID card can make application for a Guest ID card. A qualified guest is defined as an individual whose current residence is outside Lake, Marion and Sumter counties. A resident who has a son, daughter, grandchild or great grandchild (and their spouses) who reside in Lake, Marion or Sumter counties may apply for an In-Area Guest ID card.

Issuance:
Approved Guest ID cards for a guest(s) whose current residence is outside Lake, Marion and Sumter counties may be issued for up to thirty (30) days with an option to renew. The In-Area Guest ID card for qualified family members is valid for one (1) year from date of issuance
