IMPORTANT NOTICE
During a recent drive-thru of the neighborhood, we observed a pool was installed without
the proper safety barriers or permits.
A pool that is 24 inches deep or more requires a permit. The State Building Code only
exempts prefabricated swimming pools that are less than 24 inches deep from requiring a
permit (R105.2)
You are required to do one of the following two options;
1. Remove the pool and arrange for an inspection with our office upon receipt of this
notice, or
2. Remove all water immediately and submit an application for the installation of the
pool accompanied with the following;
a. A plan showing the location of the pool on the property
b. Details on a 48" minimum high barrier
c. Electrical diagram
d. Copy of the installation instructions for the pool within ten days of receipt
of this notice.
Use of the pool without a permit and Certificate of Occupancy is a violation of the State
Building Code.
These requirements also apply to the pools that can be purchased at most major
department stores that have an inflatable top ring. Unfortunately these products can be
purchased for around $100 and to bring the pool into compliance may cost several hundred
more dollars.
