There are many bonuses to doing these things:

We will be saving well over $1,000,000 a year in salaries,
maintenance of the gates and houses, electric, water, etc.

Bottom line -- the gates are a joke. We are not a private community and they're a waste!


Getting rid of the gates might just also "get rid" of some of those pesky Villagers riding around in golf carts. The gates slow down the cars entering various villages....gives the cart drivers a chance to cross the road.
