All pools or pool areas shall be enclosed by a permanent fence or similar structure surrounding the pool area. Such fences must be completely constructed as full enclosures and must be erected within thirty (30) days of completion of the pool basin, excluding plumbing. The fence or enclosure shall extend not less than four feet above the ground, and shall not be constructed in such a manner that the facing of said fence barrier is constructed solely of horizontal members. All gates shall be self-closing and self-latching. In all other respects, fences shall comply with the requirements of Chapter 152. In addition to the foregoing, a temporary safety fence constructed of vinyl mesh or other material suited to secure the pool area shall be installed at the beginning of and during construction of the pool basin unless the pool construction area is currently secured by permanent fully enclosed fencing. With respect to both temporary safety fencing and permanent fencing surrounding the pool area, all fencing shall be fully placed and contained within the property boundaries of the land of the pool owner.
