Verified from official government sources
Taylor County does not have a county-level pool fencing ordinance for unincorporated areas — counties lack the zoning authority. Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 757 mandates pool enclosures for multifamily residential properties (apartments, condos, HOA-managed pools) statewide but does not apply to single-family homes. The City of Abilene enforces the 2018 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code through its building code. Single-family pool owners in unincorporated Taylor County have no state fencing mandate but should follow ISPSC guidance to avoid liability.
