Default New Paradise Cart gate

Anybody heard when it will be activated? Drove thru there yesterday and it looks ready to go. I'm hoping the date will posted in the Daily Sun. I'm just curious if anyone has heard anything.

It's up and running. Saw 2 patrol cars there when we went through.

Simple question ... Do you need a gate card or your Villages ID card to activate the gate?

A gate card to enter Paradise, I never learned that in Sunday School. Guess I will be stuck in Limbo!

There has been such animosity about this gate from other areas who will now be restricted to enter, do you think that someone will try to "harm" the gate?

Why do you think the police cars were present?

The gate is pretty heavy duty and I would think you would definately severely damage a cart hitting it. There's actually a working camera there also just like the other entrances. Real shame about any animosity from other property residents as villagers can't enter thru their back gates either. People will get used to it after awhile.
