Above-ground pools holding more than 18 inches of water in unincorporated Yolo County require a county building permit and the same barrier protection as in-ground pools; ladders must be removable or secured when unattended.
Unincorporated Yolo County follows California's 18-inch threshold for above-ground pools: hold more water than that and the pool needs a county building permit plus barrier protection matching what in-ground pools require. State law (Health & Safety Code §115920 and following) sets the standard — 60-inch-equivalent barriers, with ladders removed or secured whenever the pool is unattended. Seasonal and quick-set pools are covered the same as permanent ones; it's the depth of water, not the price tag, that brings the rules.
