League City adopts the 2021 ISPSC under Section 22-17 for all pool safety requirements. Local amendments in Section 22-18 require area drains, proper walkway clearances, and engineering review for pools near foundations or bulkheads.
The 2021 ISPSC governs all pool safety requirements including water circulation, filtration, drainage, and electrical safety. Section 22-18 adds local requirements: area drains must be installed per the CoLC Standard Operating Procedure, walkways and landings must maintain 36-inch clearance for entry and exit, and pools near foundations or bulkheads (within 5 feet) require engineering review and inspection. The Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act requirements for drain covers and suction entrapment prevention are incorporated through the ISPSC. League City's coastal location means pools are subject to corrosion from salt air, and hurricane preparedness is important for pool owners.
Safety violations: stop-work order for construction defects. Fine up to $500 per offense. Pool may not be used until violations are corrected.
