Not all cars are the pool are owned by non-residents.

We are also in the very exclusive club of villagers w/o golf carts. For a small fee we do accept new members,

Is this true? Here come all those teenaged punks with their black hoodies in Florida swarming in the pools + “shopping” in the markets. Car jacking old people? You betcha! TV is a BIG bulls eye. :) You think these punks will obey a little old person like a cop asking to see ID??? OMG. Lol. TV won’t be able to do a damn thing about it. Just enjoy the peace there now whilst you have it. Soon TV will be like the rest of America. Lol. :)
Let’s not bring politics into this. EVERYONE is to blame.

Your post makes me say wow and thinking about buying firearms for us as well as a locked room to hide in. I will make sure we read the Village Sun cover to cover to make sure we know all about this crime wave.

Since it was my idea I get to keep 87.5% of the fees and deduct expenses off the top.

There is an age requirement. No matter how nice this couple was, they showed a very decisive, intentional lack of respect to YOU by choosing to violate the rules.

The adult pool is not your personal pool where you get to make or break the rules, or decide who gets to break them on everyone else's behalf.

If you let a 25-year old couple hang out at the 30+ pool, then you need to let the 20-year-old couple hang out at it. If you let them hang out at it, then you need to let the 15-year-old couple hang out at it. And then that 25-year-old couple should be allowed to bring their infant baby and 2-year-old.

When you break the rule to accommodate the interests of one, at the expense of the interests of everyone else, then you invalidate the rule.

We have family pools, set up JUST so that people under 30 have a place to go. That is where they should go.

Breath, stretch, and loosen up. Many of the ‘rule s’ should likely be revisited. Some of the visitors may be coming to adult pools because many are deeper than the wading pool/sports pools. Also, they are more relaxing …chairs and lounges are allowed. You can sit by the water. Each has a different atmosphere. I doubt they mean any disrespect.
Perhaps we need a TV meeting to discuss the intent of the rules and how improvements can be submitted. The list of allowed toys is out of date.

Woah... I think maybe you meant to post this on some other forum, this is way too reasonable to post here - imagine, a meeting where people "talk" (not yell) and try to come up with solutions...

We've seen numerous people who were obviously under the age of 30 in adult pools, It seems to be out of control.

Which pool was this?

Ever notice how many automobiles are in the pool parking lots? Think about it, if you went to a pool near your home, you would take your golf cart. Those who don't live here bring their cars!!!!!!!!

Not true. When I used our neighborhood pool always drove my car. Now I have my own pool and very happy.

If visitors came to your pool would you check ID's?:popcorn:

That is absolutely not true. We are mid 60’s and were asked for ID’s while IN the pool on lifestyle visit. Then, again asked 4 separate times at 3 different pools when renting for a month. We don’t mind as it showed us TV takes resident funded amenities seriously.

Nuked, is that a new cosmetic surgery procedure?

I wish people who want to swim laps would go to a sports pool instead of a neighborhood pool to do that. It's very rude of them; especially when the pool is crowded.

Probably not. Wouldn’t get through the front door if I didn’t recognize them.

Why would you think that? It didn't occur to me.
