— III; Ord. of 4-20-1977, § II]
(a)
Every outdoor swimming pool or family pool shall be completely surrounded
by a fence or wall not less than six feet in height. The fence or
wall shall be so constructed as not to have openings, holes or gaps
larger than two inches in any dimension except for doors and gates.
If a picket fence is erected or maintained, the horizontal dimension
shall not exceed two inches. A dwelling house or accessory building
may be used as part of such enclosure.
(b)
Every gate or door opening through such enclosure shall be equipped
with a self-closing and self-latching device for keeping the gate
or door securely closed at all times when not in actual use, except
that the door of any dwelling which forms a part of the enclosure
need not be so equipped.
(c)
This section shall be applicable to all new swimming pools constructed,
other than indoor pools, and shall apply to all pools in existence
on the effective date of the ordinance from which this section derives
which have a minimum depth of 24 inches of water. No person in possession
of land within the Town, either as owner, purchaser, lessee, tenant
or licensee, upon which is situated a swimming pool or family pool
having a minimum depth of 24 inches shall fail to provide and maintain
such fence or wall as provided in this section.
(d)
The inspection department may make modifications in individual cases,
upon a showing of good cause with respect to the height, nature or
location of the fence or wall or the gates or latches or the necessity
therefor, provided the protection as sought under this section is
not reduced thereby. The inspection department may permit other protective
devices or structures to be used so long as the degree of protection
afforded by the substitute devices or structures is not less than
the protection afforded by the wall, fence, gate and latch described
in this section. The inspection department shall allow a reasonable
period within which to comply with the requirements of this section.
(e)
All fences and enclosures erected prior to April 20, 1977 are considered to be in compliance with the section; provided, however, that all replacements for or substantial alterations to such preexisting fences and enclosures shall conform to the height requirements of Subsection (a) of this section.
