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 38 times across 17 separate inspections, most recently on September 8, 2026. For example: The pool disinfectant is properly maintained

  • 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 once on July 9, 2015. For example: The pool water temperature is properly maintained

  • 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 9 times across 9 separate inspections, most recently on March 23, 2026. For example: Pool equipment is regularly tested for safety and maintained in accordance with the manufacturers' specifications

  • 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 February 2, 2016. For example: The hot tub enclosure has a clock and instructions for safe use of the hot tub, in clear view
