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 18 times across 12 separate inspections, most recently on September 24, 2026. For example: Written emergency, and operational procedures & instructions available at the pool

  • 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 3 separate inspections, most recently on June 12, 2026. For example: Daily records completed and signed

  • 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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on December 8, 2025. For example: Pool, deck, walls and equipment maintained in a sanitary condition and free from hazards

  • Food safety training and certificationLower risk

    Many jurisdictions require trained pool operators and certified lifeguards. These findings mean required training, certification or staffing records were missing at the time of inspection.

    Recorded once on June 27, 2023. For example: "Pool Rules" notices displayed with complete information

  • 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 8 times across 7 separate inspections, most recently on September 24, 2026. For example: Designated and trained operator available at time of inspection
