A "swimming pool," within the meaning of this part, shall be any depression in the ground, whether temporary or permanent, or a container of water, either temporary or permanent, and either above or below the ground, in which water of more than 24 inches in depth is contained and which is used primarily for the purpose of bathing and swimming.
[Ord. No. 583-19-03, 10/16/2019]
Swimming pools within the scope of this part, not enclosed within a permanent building, shall be completely enclosed with a protective barrier of sufficient strength to prevent access to the pool and shall not be less than four feet in height, so constructed as to have no voids, holes or openings larger than four inches in one dimension except for openings for access.

[Ord. No. 583-19-03, 10/16/2019]
1. 
Above-ground swimming pools, with self-provided fencing to prevent unguarded entry, shall be allowed without separate additional fencing, provided the self-provided fence is of a minimum required height and design as heretofore specified. Said minimum required height refers to the height measured from the top of the fence to the ground at the point where the top of the fence is closest to the ground as the same surrounds the above-ground pool.

Upon notice from the Borough, any property owner who has an existing swimming pool located within the Borough of Manor in which 40 inches or more in depth of water are contained shall apply for a permit.
