Private swimming pools shall be permitted in any residential district, provided that there is an existing residence on said lot and the following regulations are complied with.

In-ground swimming pools shall be completely enclosed by a fence of not less than four feet in height. Said fence shall have a gate with a self-closing latch located inside the complex to control access to the pool area. Aboveground pools less than four feet in height shall be similarly fenced. Aboveground pools which are four feet or more above the ground shall not require a fence, except that any steps leading to the pool deck shall be enclosed by a gate that may be securely fastened and locked. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a fence shall be required if the walls of the pool are so located as to provide a means by which the wall of this pool can be climbed and entry gained to the deck of the pool.

No permit shall be issued for such pool unless the applicant can show that the proposed drainage of such pool is adequate and will not adversely interfere with the property of others, with public highways or with area drainage facilities. No pool shall drain into the village's sanitary sewer system.

Lights erected, operated or maintained in connection with a swimming pool shall be located in such a manner so as to minimize the glare onto adjacent properties.

Service drop conductors and any other open overhead wiring shall not be installed above the swimming pool or an area surrounding the swimming pool which extends 10 feet horizontally from the pool edge, diving structures, observation stands, towers or platforms. Service conductors shall be enclosed in ground fault interrupter boxes and appropriately grounded.

A filtering system shall be installed in all pools requiring in excess of 1,760 gallons of water to fill an area approximately 10 feet in diameter by 36 inches in depth.

Building and zoning permits shall be required for all swimming pools having an area greater than 100 square feet or a depth greater than 18 inches regardless of whether the pool is above or below ground.

Applications for swimming pool permits shall comply with these regulations and all applicable requirements of the State of New York. Where the regulations of the village and state are inconsistent, the more restrictive requirements shall govern.
