Default Why not just transfer a resident pass?

- A partially booked rental will use fewer amenities than a full-time resident? Arguable since not all full-time usage is the same.

A landlord may or may not retain their resident ID. If they are not present then they aren't using the amenities and the argument above is correct. If they are present in the home then there is little difference from me having friends come to visit. If they are present because they own two homes then they aren't utilizing the amenities from the rented home and the above is again correct.
Why not just transfer a resident pass? It is the correct thing to do. Should landlords have a shortcut to increase their rental popularity? It certainly would help amenities.

Wouldn’t a landlord have an advantage otherwise? Of course, they have their cake and can eat it too too all of our expense? What’s $50? Answer…it pads the amenity fund.

Couldn’t more than one group be using amenities assigned to the same address? Absolutely. A landlord can conveniently get guest passes for someone using their home and enjoy a round of golf on the same day.

The current system is absurd. A land lord can just get guest passes and keep their resident card. The best solution is to just transfer their rights and privileges. Why should a landlord keep their privileges and also rent them out?
