Recreational Water Safety
The Health Protection team is responsible for monitoring recreational beaches weekly during the swimming season. Commercial pools and hot tubs are also approved and inspected regularly.
What we do

- Issue construction permits for new and renovated pools
- Issue and renew operating permits to public and commercial pools, hot tubs and spray parks
- Review pool safety plans
- Respond to complaints
- Issue correction orders or closures for serious violations
