I'm not sure about the "signing waivers" part - seems like a good lawyer (or even a bad lawyer) can beat them. The "checking IDs" is the job of the Rec Center personnel and (sometimes, I think) Community Watch. I do believe CW is supposed to spot check some pools and outdoor activities as is Rec Cen staff. Pretty much "hit or miss" enforcement from what I have seen. Also some events are "open to the public" like some of the shows at Savannah Center. Maybe a resident discount on ticket purchases to people with ID cards but basically open to anyone who has a ticket. Political "things" and many state or national "things" (i.e. a Veterans Fair) are held at Rec Centers but are open to the public. I think SHINE has to serve anyone who comes to them for help/advice even if they are not Village residents even though SHINE holds their sessions at Rec Centers. I think AARP Tax Aide may be a similar example also where non-Villagers can participate even though they work out of a rec center. That makes rule enforcement hard and excuses to get around the rules plentiful.
