Residential pools in Ewa Gentry must be surrounded by a compliant barrier with self-closing, self-latching gates under ROH Section 16-6.2 to prevent unsupervised child access.
Section 16-6.2 requires fences, walls, or approved enclosures around residential swimming pools of sufficient depth and capacity. Barriers must be at least the height specified in the adopted residential code, with no climbable footholds and with openings that cannot pass a four-inch sphere. Gates must swing outward, self-close, and self-latch with the latch mounted high out of a small child's reach. Power safety covers that meet ASTM F1346 may substitute in limited cases. In Ewa Gentry, shared lanai walls between zero-lot-line homes can form part of the barrier only if they meet height and non-climbable standards.
Operating a pool without a compliant barrier is a civil violation with per-day fines and can lead to mandatory draining until corrected.
