This chapter shall apply to all swimming pools in the Village
of Solvay.
For the purpose of this chapter, "swimming pool" shall be defined
as follows:
SWIMMING POOL
Any structure intended for swimming or recreational bathing
that contains water over 24 inches (610 mm) deep. This includes in-ground,
aboveground and on-ground swimming pools, hot tubs, and spas.
No swimming pool shall be installed until a building permit
has been issued by the Code Enforcement Officer. The building permit
shall be posted conspicuously on the premises before installation.
No building permit for the installation of a swimming pool shall
be issued except upon an application which shall be accompanied by
a map or a survey showing the exact location of the pool with reference
to lot setback lines, the existing buildings and water supply system,
the drainage and water disposal system and all appurtenances pertaining
to the pool. The application shall also describe the manner and method
of disposal of wastewater.
Any application and ensuing installation or removal of a swimming pool shall also be subject to the provisions of Article
I and Article
II of Chapter
89 of this Code. In instances of a conflict between Chapter
89 and this chapter, the provisions of this chapter shall govern. In addition, such application, installation or removal shall be in compliance with the laws and regulations of New York State and the Onondaga County Department of Health.
Swimming pools shall be allowed only in rear yards as set forth in §

Any person or persons, firm or corporation violating any of
the provisions of this chapter shall, upon conviction thereof, pay
a fine not exceeding $250 for each violation or be subject to imprisonment
for a term not exceeding 15 days, or both. Each day a particular violation
continues shall constitute a separate violation. The Board of Trustees
may also enforce this chapter by injunction or any other remedy available
by law.
