I heard a rumor from Bruce that the gate card system in the Villages is going to change. Be forewarned that I have been giving out and using the devices that are placed in car mirrors to activate the gates for over a year.

I read the NSCUDD agenda and sometimes the District 10 agenda. But, I hardly ever read the agenda for the other 16 CDDs and don’t believe how it was worded in the agenda that I would perceive this change was going to prevent the better cloned cards to not work.

I appreciate your post to attempt to explain a new gate card system. But, to me, it read as mostly gobblygook. Can you condense it down to something people can understand?

In Tampa many gated communities had a sticker on the side window with a bar code to enter your neighborhood.
The good part was you didn’t have to open your window.
Why couldn’t we have this instead of the card?

I fully understand the need for the gates to slow traffic etc but why are card readers and cards even needed? Just have the gates open and close just as the exit gates do or as they do now when a car approaches. It will serve the exact same purpose and any specific raise/lower time delay can be set in it to slow down traffic when a car approaches.

Now, I have to go from a better gate card system to one that in my opinion is poor after having used both. I have asked District staff to let both sellers and Villagers know that the cloned cards will stop working sometime in the future.

You don't have the /right/ to duplicate those cards or card codes and bypass the system to give non-residents entry. You don't have to like that rule, but that's the rule. Y'all are such sticklers about the deed restrictions and how no one in your neighborhood should break any rules, and then they'll have nothing to complain about.

Well - this is a rule. If you aren't breaking it, then you have nothing to complain about. You knew about the gate cards when you bought your property. If you didn't like it, you shouldn't have moved here.

He doesn't have to like it. And he's not "breaking the law." But he is breaking the rules (which is not the same as breaking the law). Seems hypocritical to me, that people who pounce on anyone who violates deed restrictions in a deed restricted community, would have no problem violating the rules in a community governed with rules.

I read the intent is to upgrade and prepare the systems for a more state of the art system that no longer requires rolling a window down to activate the gate.

One result of this upgrade would be to use a different; device, barcode, ... to activate the gate. This existing cards would be phased out at some point.
