As a single person I would NOT want to have a guest ID for someone I am dating. That would open a whole can of worms and violate the spirit of residence/guest advantges.

HOWEVER, I would like to be able to have the person I am dating or even just a friend, attend occasional events at recreation centers, such as dances.
Would you married people object to singles getting a pass for their date or a friend to dances or other events where you yourself would never go alone?

How about this? (It annoys me that this has become married vs single)
So why not a rule that ANYONE can get two passes a month for a non resident who lives nearby.
I totally agree, Kitty!

This is what I don't understand. If they have non-owner resident IDs, why can't they give single people one non-owner ID (make the ID a different color) and that person has to be accompanied by the person with the resident ID.

I don't think people understand that if a TV resident wants to take a date or friend to a TV function that they can't do it if the said date or friend lives in Sumter, Marion or Lake County. You cant't even get them a guest ID that you could get if they didn't live in those three counties.

But, my case is different. I'm single but my 90 year old mother and I are both on our deed and both have Resident IDs. The only avtivity my Mother does is go to the Neighborhood Pool. Kinda a waste of the ID. Of course, we had to turn our Resident IDs into TV when we put our home on the rental market.

That brings up a whole other question. What happens to the second ID when one of the people on the deed is no longer living?
