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 35 times across 19 separate inspections, most recently on April 2, 2024. For example:
The pool does not present any suction or entrapment hazards to pool patrons
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 5 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on April 3, 2025. For example:
Pool equipment is regularly tested for safety and maintained in accordance with the manufacturers' specifications
