Suspicious van slow-rolling near Sand Pine Elementary

White van, no markings, drove the loop by the school twice around dismissal and parked a while. Probably nothing but wanted to flag it. Got a partial plate, called the non-emergency line.

home wood floor repair

have water damage in one room of my house and need a contractor to rip up the flooring that's ruined and replace with same wood - any contractors you would recommend? Thanks.

Does anyone know why the barrels have been out on Wesley Chapel Blvd in front on Dunkin by the Grove for over a month with no work going on?

Best pizza in Wesley Chapel? Settle it.

We're new and need a go-to pizza place. Not chains — somewhere local. Hit me with your favorites and what to order.

An Ackerman jewelry store would be a nice addition.

An APPLE STORE would sure put you on the map!! They are far far away

Anyone else sitting on SR-56 this morning?

Completely stopped from Meadow Pointe to the I-75 ramp around 7:50. Is there an accident or is this just the new normal now that everything's opening up out here?

Why isn’t the growth making it its own CITY?

Car break-ins in Seven Oaks overnight — lock your doors

Woke up to our car gone through, and a neighbor two doors down too. Nothing forced — they're just checking for unlocked doors. Take valuables in and lock up. Reported to PCSO.

Power out again in Seven Oaks (Duke)

Out since about 4:15. Anyone else? Duke map shows ~600 affected, estimate 7pm. Third time this month, getting old.

Crystal Lagoon / Epperson membership — worth it for a family of 4?

Tempted, but membership plus per-visit fees add up fast. Are you going enough to justify it, or just grabbing day passes? Kids are 6 and 9.

Lost dog — golden retriever near Watergrass (answers to Murphy)

Slipped out of the yard this afternoon, friendly older golden, blue collar, no tags 😢 Last seen near the Watergrass amenity center. Please DM if you see him.

Road flooding on Curley Rd after the rain

Heads up — Curley flooded again at the low spot after this afternoon's downpour. Saw a sedan stalled. Turn around, don't drive through it.

Free moving boxes — Union Park, porch pickup

Just unpacked, have a big stack of clean medium/large boxes + packing paper. Free to whoever wants them. On the porch, first come. DM for the street.

Someone checking car door handles on Ring (Meadow Pointe)

2:40am, two people on bikes going down the street pulling every handle. Didn't get in anything but sharing the clip with the sheriff. LOCK UP.

Patio set — moving sale this Saturday (Watergrass)

Table + 4 chairs + umbrella, aluminum so no rust. $90 OBO. Also have a grill and some planters. Sat 8am–noon, message for the address.

Trash / recycling schedule changed?

My recycling didn't get picked up this week and a neighbor said the day moved. Did anyone else get a notice from the county about a schedule change?

KRATE at The Grove — what's actually good?

Finally walked around KRATE this weekend. So many spots. What are everyone's must-tries? We did the taco place and it was solid.

Peloton bike — barely used, $600

Original Peloton, used maybe a dozen times (classic story 😅). Excellent condition, pet-free home. Cash + local pickup in Persimmon Park. Mat included.

Mosquitoes are brutal this year — what's working?

Our backyard is unusable after 6pm. Tried the citronella stuff, barely helps. Anyone doing a yard service or have a setup that actually works out here?

Found a set of keys at The Grove (by the fountain)

Found car keys + a house key on a Disney lanyard near the fountain Saturday evening. Turned them in to guest services but posting here too in case someone's looking.

Crib + changing table — free to a good home

Solid wood, great condition, our youngest is past it. Would love for it to go to a family that needs it rather than the curb. Pickup in Persimmon Park.

Kids' bikes (2) — $40 each or both for $70

16" and 20", both in good shape, minor scuffs. Kids outgrew them. Pickup in Meadow Pointe. Helmets free with purchase.
