President’s Message: Pools will Open on May 4

Kim Fuller
President

Good Morning Residents:

The County is now allowing pools at HOA’s to operate. The Board and staff have worked out a plan to open the pools by reservation only. We will open the pools for one person to swim at a time beginning May 4. We will begin taking reservations for swimming in one of the pools starting today at 1 pm. See the attached instructions on how to make a reservation, it can only be done by phone. We will make the pools ready for use and have staffing available to ensure these guidelines are met.

Here are the Restrictions for your review:

Can private pools, like those in a gated housing development or apartment building, remain open?

Yes, private pools, including those in an HOA, apartment complex, hotel, motel, and country club, are permitted to operate for single occupancy only (one swimmer at a time), regardless of size or volume of pool. No gatherings around the pool are permitted.

All outdoor furniture in pool areas must be removed or stacked/chained in such a manner that furniture is rendered unusable. Drinking fountains and showers must remain closed and roped off from use. High touch areas such as handrails, restroom surfaces, light switches, dispensers, faucets, and doorknobs must be sanitized frequently.

Pools shall continue to be maintained in accordance with all County laws and regulations to ensure proper chemicals and safety measures are present. More information on pool safety can be found online at: https://rivcoph.org/coronavirus

Have a great day and stay safe.

Thank you.

Kim Fuller
President
