Florissant requires a permit for any pool 25 inches or deeper. Outdoor pools must be surrounded by a barrier complying with Chapter 305 of the 2021 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code, at least 48 inches high. All gates must be self-closing and self-latching from a 6-inch open position.
Florissant's Pool Permit Guide requires a permit for any pool 25 inches or deeper, with construction complying with the 2021 IRC, 2020 NEC, and Chapter 305 of the 2021 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code. Outdoor pools need a barrier at least 48 inches high; the pool wall qualifies if 48 inches above grade. Gates must be self-closing and self-latching from a 6-inch open position. Outside latches must sit at least 54 inches above the gate bottom; pool-side latches must be 3 inches below the top with half-inch openings within 18 inches. Where the house serves as barrier, doors and low pool-facing windows need UL 2017 alarms or self-closers. Pools must be 5 feet from lot lines.
Installing a pool deeper than 25 inches without a building permit, or without a compliant 48-inch self-closing self-latching barrier, violates Florissant's adopted pool and residential codes. Code enforcement may issue stop-work orders, require corrections, and impose a $50 re-inspection fee.
