Englewood requires private pools to be maintained in safe, sanitary condition with cleanable waterproof materials and approved enclosures preventing unauthorized access.
Chapter 385 of the Englewood Code requires that all private pools be constructed of easily cleanable, waterproof materials and maintained in safe, sanitary condition. Owners must keep enclosures intact, gates self-closing and lockable when unguarded, and pool water clean. The Health Officer may inspect pools and order corrective measures when conditions threaten public health or neighbor safety. Failure to maintain pools allows the city to compel repairs or close the pool.
Allowing stagnant or contaminated water, broken fencing, unlocked gates while unguarded, or unsanitary surfaces violates the chapter and may prompt Health Officer enforcement.
