The purpose of a pool permit is to guarantee proper fencing and infrastructure are in place to ensure safe and secure pool access on personal property. The City’s Fence By-law 189-2020 (PDF) and Zoning By-law 1-88 (PDF) require a swimming pool enclosure permit for any water structure that holds a depth of 30 inches of water or more. This includes in-ground swimming pools, permanent above-ground pools such as swim spas and hot tubs, or temporary/seasonal pools that are installed in the spring and packed away at the end of the season.require a swimming pool enclosure permit for any water structure that holds a depth of 30 inches of water or more.
