GENERAL POOL INFORMATION
Pools need to be situated so that they are not encroaching on any utilities and are within applicable setbacks for accessory structures.
Owners should call 811 (Holey Moley) prior to installation.
Inground pools DO require an approved Location Improvement Permit prior to installation.
Owners must comply with any fencing requirements necessary to comply with Indiana law and the owner’s insurance carrier. Current zoning ordinances do not prohibit the use of locked permanent covers in lieu of fencing.
