A "swimming pool" is defined as a water-filled enclosure, permanently constructed or portable, having a depth of more than 18 inches below the level of the surrounding ground, or an above-surface pool having a depth of more than 30 inches, designed, used and maintained for swimming and bathing.

All private swimming pools shall be located only in a rear yard, except that where a lot is a corner lot, a lot otherwise abutting more than one street, or a lot without a rear yard, a private swimming pool may be located in a yard other than a front yard, provided that the pool and its appurtenances, including a fence or other enclosure, is screened by densely planted evergreen vegetation, having a height of not less than the fence or enclosure, along its visible length as revealed to any street. All private swimming pools shall comply with the regulations of the Uniform Construction Code with respect to but not limited to safety enclosures, together with the requirements of Schedule C.

Editor's Note: Schedule C, Setback Requirements for Accessory Structures, is included at the end of this chapter.
