Oakley FAQ

Is a 4-foot fence enough around a CCC pool?

No. California requires a minimum 60-inch (5-foot) barrier height, plus the other H&S Code §115922 criteria. A 4-foot fence does not satisfy the Pool Safety Act.

Do I need a permit for pool fencing?

Yes. New pool construction and pool barrier installation both require building permits in unincorporated CCC, and final inspection must confirm compliance with the Pool Safety Act.
