Everett regulates above-ground pools including permit requirements, setbacks, and barrier standards. Pools over a certain depth or capacity typically require permits.
Everett requires permits for above-ground pools exceeding 24 inches in depth or holding more than 5,000 gallons, though thresholds vary locally. Pools must meet setback requirements from property lines and structures. Barrier and fencing requirements apply to above-ground pools the same as in-ground pools, though pool walls 48 inches or higher may satisfy barrier requirements. Electrical connections must comply with NEC requirements with GFCI protection. Proper drainage must prevent discharge onto neighboring properties. Temporary inflatable pools under the depth threshold are generally exempt.
Unpermitted pools: removal or retroactive permit with double fees. Safety violations: immediate correction required. Fines $100 to $500.
