(a) A person shall not operate a public or semi-public pool without a permit. To obtain a permit an applicant must complete a form provided by the director. An applicant must designate a manager of operations of each pool for which a permit is sought. A person designated as manager of operations of a pool must reside in the city or be employed on the premises where the pool is located.
(b) If a manager of operations of a pool ceases to perform that function for any reason, the owner of the pool shall designate a new manager within a reasonable period of time.
(c) The director shall issue a permit to an applicant if a qualified manager of operations has been designated and the fee has been paid. The amount of the fee is $20 for each pool owned by an applicant. The fee is due on or before the first day of March of each calendar year. If a permit is initially issued after the first day of March of a calendar year, the fee for that year will be prorated according to the number of whole months remaining in the year. No refunds will be made.
