Above-ground pools in Pasadena holding over 24 inches of water must comply with Texas pool barrier requirements (HSC Ch. 757). Electrical connections require city permits. The fence ordinance (maximum 7 feet, permit required) applies to pool barriers.
Texas HSC Chapter 757 applies to above-ground pools containing more than 24 inches of water, requiring the same safety barriers as in-ground pools. Pasadena's fence ordinance (maximum 7-foot height, permit required) also applies to pool barriers. Electrical permits are required for pool pump and filter connections. Subdivision deed restrictions commonly restrict or prohibit above-ground pools. The city's building department reviews pool barrier compliance during fence permit review.
Specific penalty amounts for this ordinance are not published in a publicly accessible fine schedule. Contact Pasadena code enforcement directly for current fines, enforcement procedures, and hearing options.
