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 6 separate inspections, most recently on May 28, 2024. For example: Total alkalinity between 80mg/L (80ppm) and 120mg/L (120ppm).

  • 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 5 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on February 6, 2026. For example: Sufficient supply and storage of chemicals and testing devices.

  • 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 4 times across 4 separate inspections, most recently on February 6, 2026. For example: Sanitizer levels in compliance.

  • 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 once on February 21, 2024. For example: Pool, deck, equipment, sanitary facility and adjoining areas kept in a safe and sanitary manner and free from hazards.

  • 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 August 6, 2026. For example: Daily records complete, signed and maintained.
