Default replacing gatecards
Interesting. We were there in early November and realized one of 3 tenants we'd had since we were there previously must have driven off with one. 2 of the tenants replied to my email that they did not have it (would not have been a big deal to mail it back) and never heard from the 3rd one.

We went to the VCDD (located on Wedgewood Dr north of 466) and paid $15.00 for a replacement, but I don't remember them saying anything about deactivating the 2nd one and re-activating it, although maybe they did so. I think we did bring it along. Would kind of hope that they do, as a semi-security measure, although as we know it's not truly a gated community as the streets are not private.

I think I've said before that I think the real reason for the gates is to slow down traffic and make it safer for golfcarts. I've heard rumors that there are cameras at the gates to at least take pics of license plates, but does anyone know if that's really true or just a rumor?
