Unincorporated Guadalupe County neither zones nor permits above-ground pools. No county setback or height rule applies. HOA deed restrictions and, for POA or rental pools, the state 48-inch enclosure rule govern.
An above-ground pool at a single-family home in the unincorporated county needs no county permit and faces no county setback or placement rule, because Texas counties cannot zone. If the pool sits at a property owners association or multiunit rental property, Chapter 757's pool yard enclosure requirement applies. For a private above-ground pool, HOA deed restrictions in subdivisions near Lake McQueeney, Cibolo, and Seguin control placement, screening, and fencing. Electrical connections for the pump follow the National Electrical Code through a state-licensed electrician. Placement over a septic drainfield draws county OSSF review from Environmental Health.
No county rule governs a private above-ground pool. Placing one on a septic drainfield without OSSF review, or breaching HOA deed restrictions, draws enforcement from those authorities.
