The pool temp on Friday at Belvedere pool was 72. The Village Watch guy told those that complained, that "someone had broken in to the pool controls for the third time and turned off the heaters.". Yes, now that really makes sense. He turned them back on, but by then, it was too late. The Rec director at Pimlico had been notified several times when the pool was unacceptable for swimming. Hopefully, since there were potential homebuyers as guests last Thursday, this situation won't happen at our pool again.
I have noticed that the Belvedere Pool often seems to be at least five degrees cooler than some other pools. I've asked the pool guy (who checks IDs) on several occasions to turn up the temperature. The Lynhaven, Largo and Bacall Pools all seem to be much warmer.
