As used in this chapter, the following terms shall have the
meanings indicated:
SWIMMING POOL
Any body of water or receptacle for water having a depth
at any point greater than two feet, used or intended to be used for
swimming or bathing, and constructed, installed or maintained in or
above the ground, outside any building.
This chapter is enacted in recognition of the need to regulate
the installation and maintenance of swimming pools in residential
zones and is not applicable to the use of land for a public bathing
beach or swimming pool maintained for profit. Private swimming pools
have become so common and numerous that it is recognized that there
is not a need to regulate them in some detail. The intent of this
chapter is to establish a legal procedure for the establishment and
maintenance of swimming pools where they are found in the Town other
than in commercial public bathing beaches or swimming pools.
The penalty for violation of any of the provisions of this chapter
shall be a fine up to a maximum of $25 for each offense.
Upon filing, this chapter shall supersede Local Law No. 2-1969
pertaining to this same subject matter.
