I call them about every six weeks and get a different excuse as to why nothing has been done. At this point I can only conclude that they are simply telling me what I want to hear, with no intent of following through, with the hope that I will eventually go away.

That is why I started this thread. I am hoping that other lap swimmers will contact the recreation department so they will take the issue seriously and get swim flags for all the sports pools. In my opinion that is not an unreasonable request?
Thanks. You might want to send an email to Janet Tutt since she is the District Manager and John reports to her. I would explain that you have been asking for over a year and have not received a consistent answer. Since the District is required to save all emails under Florida Sunsihine Laws, emailing might be a better approach then a phone call. Another approach would be the request a face to face meeting in the District Office. Also, attend your CDD and get on the agenda to discuss at that level. Just my opinion.
