Which system does everyone want to use?

You can easily get her a guest pass which will allow her to use everything except the sports pools. This page off districtgov.org has information on these passes. A pass will only be valid for 30 days so you will have to submit a second request for the second month - simple.

This is not entirely true. For instance, the really popular line dance classes that fill up during the winter months require those with guest passes to wait until a few minutes before class starts, and if the class isn't full, then they can come in. Although many of those classes are filled at least 15 minutes before class starts. I don't know if any of the exercise classes do that as well.

The suggestion about changing an address on a bank account or, I suppose, any online account, printing a document showing it, then changing it back is a good one.

My understanding is that every home has two resident passes that can be used for whoever the owner wants. When we were renting five years ago, the owner would have their resident passes transferred to us for a one-time $50 fee. It was an easy process for both of us.

Be that as it may, a guest pass does allow one to get in if there is space available. On the other hand, a guest pass will never allow one to get into a sports pool.

Other than the fraud involved, I suppose it is.

Your understanding is incorrect. There are no resident passes that can be used for whoever the owner wants. All resident passes, in fact ALL passes, are for use by the individual named on the pass. When you were renting, the owners turned in the resident passes with their names so that resident passes with your names could be issued.

There might be a maximum number of active resident passes allowed per address. I believe others have mentioned that in this thread but I have no experience with that.

This thread once again proves the following: Ask a question on TOTV and you will get answers, some of them correct.

Each home is permitted 2 resident passes. The amenity fees you pay permit you to use both. You can’t have more than 2 issued to a residence. If you wish to transfer a pass and your privileges it costs 50 dollars.

Yes many people don't understand this. If you have a relative staying for a week that wants to golf, it's not really worth it to transfer your resident passes to them to get "free golf" due to the $50 plus the inability at that point for the owner to golf with them.

Plus I think that it hasn't been mentioned in this thread that if an owner temporarily transfers their resident id to someone else, the owner(s) will themselves be ineligible to get a guest id or use the pools or any facilities during that time.

Also I will be letting her use my golf cart not accompanied by me. She was on the lifestyle visit during Halloween week and wants to buy a place. Thanks for any info you can provide.

Two months yipsters, hope you love them a lot; I thought garbage and guests stink after 3 days!

Three people are living in my house and all have resident IDs. Two are owner's resident IDs and one is a non-owner resident ID. I went to the district office, told them my daughter was moving here, and they issued a resident ID. No cheating or sidestepping of the system required.

There may be a limit on the number of resident IDs, but that limit is not 2.

In the OPs case the friend is moving here for 2 months. Is it worth changing addresses for that relatively short period? Many people say no, but there is nothing preventing it.

Letting their ex-coworker move in for two months AND use their golf cart when they're not there...

I hope all goes well. But I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't.

Man, you are just full of insight the last few days. What would I do without reading your missives. Too much spare time, time to up your MPW.
