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 5 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on September 11, 2025. For example:
Pool operator designated and trained in public pool operation, maintenance, filtration systems, water chemistry and all relevant safety and emergency procedures
Cleaning and sanitizingHigher risk
Decks, change rooms, showers and shared equipment must be cleaned and disinfected regularly so infections such as athlete's foot and plantar warts are not passed between users.
Recorded 3 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on September 10, 2026. For example:
Sanitizer levels in compliance
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 on June 18, 2026. For example:
All components of the filtration, recirculation, and chemical feed systems are in continuous operation and maintained in proper working order
Building, plumbing and upkeepLower risk
Decks, ladders, fencing, drains, washrooms and signage must be in good repair. Damaged drain covers or broken fencing can be real safety hazards, while most other upkeep issues are lower risk.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on September 11, 2025. For example:
Premises is operated and maintained free from every condition that may be a potential/immediate health hazard
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 once on June 18, 2026. For example:
