Subject: Swimming Pool and Spa Pool at Americlnn,Oak Park Heights,Washington County,
Minnesota,Plan No. 010311. •
The swimming pool and spa pool at the above referenced facility were inspected by the writer on
February 23,2001.
The following items were noted pertaining to the departments requirements for public pools:
1. The depth of the water in the pool must be plainly marked in numbers and letters, be in a color
contrasting with the background,and specify the water depth and units in feet and inches.
Numerals must be at least 4 inches high. The water depth must be indicated:
a. On the edge of the deck next to the pool.
b. At the maximum and minimum depths.
c. On all sides of the pool.At the points of change of slope between deep and shallow portions.
d. At intermediate increments of depth, spaced at not more than 25-foot intervals.
This marker is required for the spa pool.
2. Access to pool areas must be controlled by doors or gates which are self-closing, self-latching
and lockable. The self-latching mechanism is non-functional.
3. Whenever either pool is open for use, the pool water must be clear enough so the bottom drain is
easily visible. The spa pool water is very cloudy.

alkalinity must be at least 50 ppm.
