Proper drainage shall be provided to ensure that pool overflow does not affect adjacent properties. Provision shall be made for drainage of the pool into a public storm sewer, where possible, unless there is a ditch or natural watercourse of sufficient size and gradient adjacent to the pool location to carry off the water satisfactorily, in which case drainage may be put into such ditch or watercourse. Permission must be obtained from the City Manager or authorized representative before the pool is drained in whole or in any substantial amount, in order to prevent overloading the storm sewer or ditch in times of heavy rain. Before discharging pool water, the water shall be free of chlorine and any other objectionable constituents that may degrade receiving water quality. In no case shall the pool be drained, directly or indirectly, into any street.
