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 6 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on July 2, 2026. For example: Spa is maintained in safe and sanitary condition, free from hazards and rendered inaccessible when not in use

  • 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 once on June 30, 2026. For example: Continuous operation of circulation system and chemical feeders

  • 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 3 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on June 30, 2026. For example: Operator trained in operation, maintenance, filtration systems, water chemistry and all relevant safety & emergency procedures

  • 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 once on June 30, 2026. For example: Records of safety related equipment inspection maintained at a frequency of once every 30 day operating period

  • 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 7 times across 5 separate inspections, most recently on July 2, 2026. For example: Total bromine maintained between 5-10 ppm
