Stagnant Water Violation?

Yet again, another potential violation.

The namesake of the Falls is a system of man-made waterfalls that are placed throughout the complex. They certainly serve a purpose in drowning out annoying noises such as music or dogs barking, but they're not always on.

For starters, they are off every night. While this may save water and power (which would seem somewhat disingenuous on behalf of the management as they leave the light on in the management office on overnight from time to time) is still leaves stagnant water.

There have been several days on end, as well, where the pumps have been turned off and water hasn't circulated. Moreover, there's been a few times where the lagoons were drained of water, leaving a few puddles here and there.

Also, even despite function of the pumps, there are regions which appear to remain stagnant as is shown here:












The Manager has claimed that the waters are treated to prevent insect infestation, though I'm skeptical of this claim after reading the pool report and having seen many gnats or mosquitoes previously.

Whatever the case, it is in need of an official inspection to make sure it is up to relevant codes.
