Above-ground pools in Provo are subject to the same building permit and fencing requirements as in-ground pools. A 6-foot fence enclosure and property line setbacks apply. Accessory structure rules may apply to associated pool structures.
Provo's pool regulations apply to both in-ground and above-ground pools — all require a building permit and must comply with the 6-foot minimum fence requirement, 5-foot property line setbacks for the enclosure, and self-closing/self-latching gate requirements. Above-ground pools with attached decking or structures may trigger additional accessory structure building permit requirements. Structures over 200 sq ft require a building permit. The wall of a sufficiently tall above-ground pool may serve as part of the barrier if it meets the 6-foot minimum and does not have accessible handholds or footholds.
Unpermitted pools: removal or retroactive permit with double fees. Safety violations: immediate correction required. Fines $100 to $500.
