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 9 times across 6 separate inspections, most recently on June 29, 2026. For example: The pH value is within the range of 7.2 - 7.8, in every part of the pool and at all times during the daily use period.

  • Equipment and utensilsLower risk

    Pumps, filters, chemical feeders and safety equipment such as lifebuoys, reaching poles and first-aid kits must be present and working. Missing safety equipment can matter a great deal in an emergency.

    Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on September 26, 2025. For example: The pool, the deck and walls, and its equipment are maintained in a safe and sanitary condition and free from potential hazards.

  • Permits, records and postingLower risk

    Operating permits, water-test logs, posted bather rules and emergency procedures. Daily test logs are how operators show the water was checked and treated between inspections.

    Recorded once on December 5, 2024. For example: Records as prescribed in the regulation are kept and signed by the operator and are retained for a period of 1 year.

  • Other findingsLower risk

    Findings that do not fit the categories above, such as follow-ups that confirm an earlier violation was corrected, or requirements specific to this type of facility.

    Recorded once on March 25, 2025. For example: A land line emergency telephone is provided, easily accessible and directly connected to an emergency service or to the local telephone utility.
