(b) Every person who intends to operate or maintain an existing public swimming pool, public spa, or special use pool shall, during the month of March of each year, apply to the Williams County Combined Board of Health for a license to operate the pool or spa. Any person proposing to operate or maintain a new or otherwise unlicensed public swimming pool, public spa, or special use pool shall apply to the Williams County Combined Board of Health at least thirty days prior to the intended start of operation of the pool or spa within thirty days of receipt of an application for licensure of a public swimming pool, public spa, or special use pool. The Williams County Combined Board of Health shall process the application and either issue a license or otherwise respond to the applicant regarding the application within thirty days of receipt of application.
(c) Each license issued shall be effective from the date of issuance until the last day of May of the following year.

Operators may appeal denial or revocation of license according to the procedures provided under Ohio R.C. Chapter 119.
