1.1 INTRODUCTION
This report summarizes the swimming pool evaluation for the Emeryville Center for
Community Lift swimming pool and pool equipment. This evaluation is based upon
the conditions we were able to observe during our site tour and information provided
to us by the facility staff. We did not have any as-built plans to consult during this
evaluation. There was no destructive testing during this evaluation. Destructive
testing is outside the scope of this evaluation. Hidden defects and structural
conditions beyond what we were able to observe is beyond the scope of this report.
1.2 COMPLEX DESCRIPTION
The Emeryville Center of Community Life swimming pool is located adjacent to the
Emeryville High School. The facility is run by the City Parks and Recreation
Department. There currently is no high school use of the swimming pool. The
swimming pool is surrounded by buildings on three sides and a chain link fence on
the fourth. The facility consists of a single 6-lane swimming pool with concrete
decking around the perimeter of the pool. A bathhouse with minimal bathroom
fixtures is adjacent to the pool deck. The facility does not have an office for ticket
taking, lifeguards, first aid or a facility director. Ticket taking is currently achieved
with a portable folding table and a pop-up tent on the pool deck. There is evidence
that the facility has undergone some renovations since it was originally built. This is
evidenced by the conversion of the original pool scum gutters to a skimmer surface
water collection system and the relatively new pool mechanical equipment.
1.3 PROGRAMMING
The City staff reports that the swimming pool is open approximately nine months a year.
The pool opens in March and closes in October. The following aquatic programs
have been identified by the City staff as the current or desired programs that the
swimming pool complex needs to support.
