What these findings mean
Health authorities word their findings differently, so we group them by what they mean for the people using the facility. Higher-risk findings are the ones that could directly cause illness or injury, such as water that is not properly treated.
Pool and spa water qualityHigher risk
For pools, spas and splash pads, inspectors test disinfectant levels, pH and water clarity, and check safety equipment. Water that is not properly treated can spread skin, ear and stomach infections.
Recorded 31 times across 10 separate inspections, most recently on May 29, 2026. For example:
Pool water velocity and recirculation rate is properly maintained
Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk
Decks, ladders, fencing, drains, washrooms and signage must be in good repair. Damaged drain covers or broken fencing can be real safety hazards, while most other upkeep issues are lower risk.
Recorded once on August 27, 2019. For example:
The water is clear so that the pattern of the main drain is clearly visible
