Residents can request visitors through form, will be mailed to all households in November

GATE ACCESS

During RFID tag distribution, residents are asked to provide the names of their desired four authorized guests.

People who do not need RFID tags on their vehicles will still have an opportunity to provide the names of their permanent authorized guests to Security.

In mid- to late November, every resident will receive a copy of the GRF budget. In the budget packet, people will also receive a form where people can write in their permanent guests.

After filling out the form, people can return it in one of three ways: (1) handing it to any Security guard while entering the community, (2) dropping the form off at the Finance Office, or (3) mailing the form to GRF.

After Jan. 1, 2024, people will not be able to use decals to gain entry into the community; they must have an RFID tag on their vehicle or show a valid Leisure World ID to enter.

RFID tags are part of Leisure World’s new gate access system that will significantly heighten security in LW.

In the case of rain on a Mutual’s distribution date, Security will close operations for that day. Rained-out Mutuals will be accommodated during the make-up week starting Oct. 30.

The RFID tag distribution is one tag per one LW ID card. Tags for additional vehicles, golf carts, etc. will be issued at a later date.

Who can receive an RFID

tag?

Any person who possesses a valid Leisure World Identification Card may receive one RFID tag for one vehicle with a valid GRF decal without charge. To receive an RFID tag, people must have a valid Leisure World decal on their vehicle. Decals are available at the Decal Office next to the Café in Building 5.

Where do I pick up my RFID tag?

People can pick up their RFID tags at the 1.8-acre site, located in the northwest corner of the community in Mutual 9 (formerly known as the “minifarms”).

Before entering the 1.8-acre site, Security will verify all four documents (valid license, vehicle registration, vehicle insurance and GRF Identification Card). Upon entering 1.8-acre site, people will complete a form to list the four permanent guests they want on their account.

People will need to provide a password for their account.

Distribution Calendar

For efficiency, Security is distributing RFID tags by Mutual. Any residents in line for a tag on a day that they have not been assigned will not receive an RFID tag.

The hours of distribution will be 8:30 a.m.-4 p.m. Cars may not line up earlier than 8:15 a.m. on Oak Hills Drive.
