It would be difficult, not impossible to alter so that the in-area guest policy was enforceable and fair.

As you know all owners named on the deed are entitled to a resident ID. Four owners of a property would each be entitled to a resident ID. So it's not really fair to say that couples receive special consideration for resident ID's, and that singles are somehow disadvantaged by this policy. Good luck with this suggestion.

So if two or three couples join in to buy a house together, with say four or six names on the deed, they receive four or six resident cards yet they still pay the same amenities fee as a single person. Wow, what a deal for them!
