- Complete and submit an updated key card registration form with both homeowner and tenant information (see page 6 of the Briarhills Amenities Information Guide).
- A $25 replacement fee applies for the first set of replacement key cards. Each subsequent set costs $100. Please collect cards from tenants at the end of their lease term to avoid this fee.
