Question

If you are in an HOA community with a swimming pool, has your HOA announced whether the pool will open this season, and if so, what possible modifications may be expected?  

Answer 1

The pools need to wait to hear from IDPH. Centennial Beach has a decent chance of opening since it’s considered open water. They should hear from IDPH next week

Comments

There will be a bunch of guidelines though

---

@actinomycosis says nothing for the public bathrooms and lockerooms where it actually has better chance to spread

---

@actinomycosis are chemicals such as chlorine added at Centennial to kill bacteria ?  

---

@amplitude7599 yes. It’s not required but they do

---

Although chlorination may not be technically required at Centennial, there is no other viable alternative as the water must remain fresh and parasite/bacteria free, as it is a public facility. It's designation of a "beach" by the IDPH does not relieve the city of Naperville of certain "pool" water quality and safety requirements. Quote from the website: "Yes – our staff tests the water 2-3 times daily to monitor chlorine levels and pH balance. We typically follow swimming pool regulations with regard to water quality standards. On a weekly basis, our water is sampled and tested by an independent laboratory to ensure that the water quality is being maintained. "

South Point is taking a wait and see stance, and hoping for a June opening. and is still requiring payment for this year's dues. We'll see - we're all in a tough spot given the lack of specific guidance from the state.

@collocutor1795 so you are saying hygiene has gone down now? People may be washing less?

@valene4 I can only hope that this has been a real wake up call.

@collocutor1795 only two possibilities less it’s super viable on surfaces and and we all are going to get it. or it’s spread in air like they admitted today

---

@valene4 whaaaat? Heck no.

@collocutor1795 they finally admitted they knew it would reduce transmission by up to 60% wearing simple masks but it was an honest noble lie to save resources for healthcare. Please stay with us
