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 9 times across 9 separate inspections, most recently on August 18, 2025. For example:
Written emergency, and operational procedures & instructions available at the pool.
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 7 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on August 18, 2025. For example:
Sufficient supply and storage of chemicals and testing devices.
Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk
This covers how food and supplies are stored and handled: kept covered, off the floor, and away from anything that could contaminate them. Where food is served, raw meat must be kept away from ready-to-eat food, a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.
Recorded 5 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on August 18, 2025. For example:
Pool and deck surfaces, equipment, and adjoining areas maintained in a safe and sanitary manner and free from hazards.
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 5 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on August 8, 2024. For example:
Sanitizer levels in compliance.
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 10 times across 9 separate inspections, most recently on August 13, 2025. For example:
Daily records complete, signed and maintained.
