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 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on September 22, 2026. For example: Two buoyant throwing aids with rope provided (rope must be six millimetres in diameter, and half the width of the pool plus three metres in length) are present on the pool deck.

• 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, 2025. For example: Pool dressing rooms, water closets, and shower facilities are maintained in a clean and sanitary manner, and free from potential health hazards.

• 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 February 21, 2025. For example: All surfaces of pool deck and walls are maintained in a sanitary condition and free from potential hazards.
