The problems arise when people do not respect the purpose usage of these pools when there are others in it. Sort of like no one under 30 should be in the water. If you find people are disregarding these rules and it disturbs you, call community watch or the rec center and they will handle the situation.
Welcome to the " friendly" Villages. This has been going on for years. The rules are for others since enforcement is non existing. Sad. Best to look at schedule for sports pools and go during open swim, lap swim. And don't dare tell a grand parent to take their family to the family pool. After all the neighborhood pool allows them to hang there! Be careful of dogs loose near mail stations as well. After a while you get use to rule breaking , stay calm, you cannot change things without becoming
the neighborhood grump.
