Gates shall be securely locked, and such locks shall be of the self-locking type, when such pool is not in use by the owner thereof or anyone using the same with his permission. When the rear yard of a residence is enclosed by a closed or open fence not more than six feet nor less than forty-two inches high, and contains self-locking gates, no additional fence will be required hereunder. A portable plastic or vinyl outdoor swimming pool two feet or under in height shall have a protective cover of plastic, and shall be properly secured when not in use.
