[HISTORY: Adopted by the City Council of the City of Lancaster as
Article 1765 of the Codified Ordinances. Amendments noted where applicable.]
No person, fire or corporation shall construct or maintain a swimming
pool, either artificial or natural, on private premises in the city, unless
the same has been enclosed with a substantial protective fence at least four
feet in height and permitting no space along the base thereof. Such fence
may be constructed of any suitable material approved by the Building Official
of the city and shall be equipped with a self-latching gate which shall be
locked at all times when the swimming pool is unattended.
The Building Official shall approve all such fences, presently constructed
or to be constructed in the future. Any private swimming pool not presently
protected by a fence as above-described shall forthwith be so protected by
the owner thereof.
Whoever violates any of the provisions of this chapter shall, upon conviction
thereof in a summary proceeding, be fined $200 and costs of prosecution and,
in default of such payment, be imprisoned for not more than 30 days.
