9718 107 Street NW Edmonton AB T5K 1E4 · Aquatic Facility
Inspection summary
Government Centre North Plaza - Spray Park has been inspected 14 times by Alberta Health Services (Environmental Public Health) since May 1, 2025. The most recent inspection, on August 7, 2026, found no infractions.
4 of 14 inspections on record found no infractions at all. In the past 12 months there were 10 inspections with 13 infractions recorded. The higher-risk findings here relate to: Pool and spa water quality, Food temperature control and Chemicals and toxic substances.
Recent inspections have recorded fewer infractions than earlier ones, so the record is improving.
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 16 times across 9 separate inspections, most recently on July 29, 2026. For example:
Is the bacteriological quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Critical)?
Food temperature controlHigher risk
Inspectors check that anything that has to be kept at a set temperature, such as chilled or hot food, or equipment like sterilizers, stays in its safe range and that accurate thermometers are on hand. With food, temperature problems are one of the most common causes of food poisoning.
Recorded 5 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on May 15, 2026. For example:
Is the pool maintained in a clean and sanitary condition, good repair and are temperatures being properly regulated?
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 3 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on May 14, 2025. For example:
Is the chemical quality of the water in this pool satisfactory (Critical)?
