NEWPORT BEACH Bay Club produces pool policy

MARINER'S MILE — People say "it" happens, but the Balboa Bay Club management is not putting up with it anymore.

The club has imposed a $1,000 fine on anyone, or any parent whose child, is caught defecating in the pools, officials said. The new rules were handed down via an announcement in the club's magazine, "Bay Windows."

"Due to last summer's increase in fecal accidents in the pool(s), [Balboa Bay Club] management will enforce a new pool closure policy," the warning reads.

Maggie Feldman, the club's spokeswoman, said the new ruling is a matter of hygiene and practicality. It costs money to close the pool and clean it, and it also detracts from other member's ability to have fun, she said.

Seriously, I always thought of the Balboa Bay Club as a somewhat Bushwoodesque kind of place, but I had no idea that they had this much problem with actual pottying in the pool.
