case requires. No private pool drain or wading pool drain shall be

from a private swimming pool or wading pool into the sanitary sewerage
system, the owner, lessee or occupant of said pool may discharge the

holes or gaps larger than four inches in any dimension, except for
doors or gates, and if a picket fence is erected or maintained, the
horizontal dimension shall not exceed four inches. A dwelling house
or accessory building may be used as part of such enclosure. All gates
used in conjunction with the fence or wall shall meet the same specifications
as the fence or wall itself and shall be equipped with approved self-closing,
locking and latching devices and shall be locked at all times when
