Menifee's pool permit and barrier rules expressly cover above-ground and on-ground pools; if the pool structure itself serves as the barrier, its ladder or steps must be securable, lockable, or removable to prevent access.
The City of Menifee Building & Safety handouts state that pool construction requirements apply to all outside swimming pools, including in-ground, above ground or on ground pools, hot tubs, and spas permitted on or after April 6, 2006. An above-ground pool structure may serve as the barrier or have the barrier mounted on top of the pool structure, in which case the bottom-clearance allowance increases to 4 inches. Where access is by ladder or steps, they must be capable of being secured, locked, or removed to prevent access, or be surrounded by a compliant barrier; any opening created when the ladder is removed must itself be protected by a complying barrier.
An above-ground pool without an approved barrier or securable ladder fails city inspection and is subject to correction notices and code enforcement action by the Building & Safety Department.
