POOLS AND HOT TUBS WITHIN RM REQUIRE PERMIT

Did you know that all private swimming pools and/or hot tubs, capable of containing more than 24 inches of water, require a Building Permit and must be inspected by our Municipal Building Inspectors? This includes ALL types of above and below ground pools, including temporary or seasonal pools.

All private pools must be completely enclosed with a fence or other suitable barrier, including self-closing and locking gates, where applicable. Pool covers of any type, material, manufacture, or strength do not count as a suitable barrier. Hot Tubs require a cover that has the structural strength to support the weight of an adult walking across the top of the cover when it is in the closed position.

Many pools have features, such as inflatable ring edges, that allow the depth of the pool to increase beyond 24” and should be included in any pool’s depth measurement.

Please apply for a pool and/or hot tub permit by visiting our web¬site at www.rmofsteanne.com, and apply though Cloudpermit.
