Do It Right: Backyard Pools

Thinking about getting a pool this summer?
Owning a pool is terrific—but it comes with responsibilities.

By-law 4008 requires every outdoor swimming pool that is capable of holding water deeper than 24 inches or is greater than 22 sq. ft. to be enclosed by
a fence.

A permit for a swimming pool enclosure must be obtained before the pool is installed. Remember to investigate the cost of proper fencing/enclosure before purchasing any pool­—including softsided and inflatable models. Learn more about the requirements for pools at www.tillsonburg.ca/pools.
