Swimming Pool Rules
Just a heads up to anyone thinking about putting a temporary pool up this summer. If the sides of your pool are not 1.2m or higher these are the rules.
You must put up fencing 1.2ms or higher, fence can not be climbable.
You must have a latch able and lockable (self closing) gate.
Pool must be registered with Council and fencing must be inspected by the Pool Department of the Council and there upon must be inspected every 3 yrs.
Also be aware if you have already got a pool and filled it already and you want to register your pool and put up a fence you have to empty your pool until it is all approved.
We have put up a temporary pool every yr for the last 5 yrs. Not once were we informed until last yr by current realestate but was at end of summer. Was hit up about it again this yr. Even then we were not told we had to register or have a 1.2m fence as we live rural. So checked with Council. we have a boundary fence as well as an internal apparently not sufficient enough. We are also on tank water so emptying and refilling is not an option while trying to afford to follow the law. So pool had been pulled down and this yr we will have to suffer through the heat without our pool.
