OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
- The house is right off of 34th St and the traffic is noisy and noticeable when you are outside of the house.

- There are leaves, pollen, bugs, and natural debris that falls into the pool minutes after the pool is cleaned. It's important to know that the pool is in fact maintained by a professional company and is safe to use. We encourage our guests to embrace the natural Florida surprises falling in.

- A technician from Florida Leisure Pool & Spa will be coming by to clean the pool on Thursdays within 12 and 5pm. And if for any reason they do not make it on Thursday, they will come on Friday within 12 and 5pm.

- The city is able to empty the garbage and recycling bins on Wednesday mornings. If the big black garbage bin and recycling bins are full (they should be located outside of the garage to the right, if they have not already been brought to the street), please bring the garbage and recycling bins to the street touching the curb anytime on Tuesday evening so they can be emptied early Wednesday morning.
