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.

• 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on September 16, 2026. For example: Safe storage, handling and sufficient supply of all chemicals

• 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on March 18, 2025. For example: Daily records completed, signed and available for viewing

• 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 September 16, 2026. For example: Minimum amount of make-up water added daily
