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 3 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on September 1, 2026. For example: pH is within the range of 7.2- 7.8

• Chemicals and toxic substancesHigher risk

  Pool chemicals such as chlorine and acid must be labelled, stored apart from each other and handled safely. Mixing them by mistake can release toxic gas, so storage and handling problems are treated seriously.

  Recorded once on June 22, 2026. For example: Chemical disinfection levels are maintained at required levels

• Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk

  This covers how food and supplies are stored and handled: kept covered, off the floor, and away from anything that could contaminate them. Where food is served, raw meat must be kept away from ready-to-eat food, a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.

  Recorded once on June 22, 2026. For example: Water is maintained free from visible matter and contamination

• Food safety training and certificationLower risk

  Many jurisdictions require trained pool operators and certified lifeguards. These findings mean required training, certification or staffing records were missing at the time of inspection.

  Recorded once on June 22, 2026. For example: Notification submitted to WDGPH prior to opening or re-opening along with current operator’s name and contact information
