We looked at many homes in TV with an outside realtor. He just pulled up to the gates, pushed the red button and the gate opened. This without saying a word. I asked how this was possible. He said the streets within TV are public roads and they're not allowed to refuse entry to anyone. The gate pass is a convenience. The gate opens a few seconds faster than pushing the button but the passes are not necessary.
I don't know how true this is, but I do know that we went all over TV looking at resale homes and were never challenged.
