Sec. 9-286 requires pools to be maintained 'in a clean and sanitary condition, and in good repair' with motors and pumps in working condition. Stagnant unmaintained pools are public-health nuisances under Sec. 22-50 and can be drained at owner expense.
Sec. 9-286(a) and (b) require general maintenance — sanitary water, working pumps and motors. The most common code-enforcement issue is abandoned or under-maintained pools at vacant properties: green/stagnant water becomes mosquito habitat under Sec. 22-50 (sanitary nuisances). Code Enforcement can issue an order to drain or restore service. Pool drain covers must meet the federal Virginia Graeme Baker Pool & Spa Safety Act (VGB) standards — required by Florida Building Code §454. Public/semi-public pools (HOA, condo, hotel) are inspected by the Florida Department of Health under F.A.C. ch. 64E-9.
Sec. 9-296 — Code Enforcement Board $250/$500 day. F.S. §381 sanitary-nuisance penalties for stagnant pools — DOH can post properties and pursue contempt charges.
