Swimming Pool Removal Permit Requirements
This permit will allow an existing swimming pool to be removed or filled in. Following are the
minimum requirements that must be met:
- If the pool shell is to remain, three holes (minimum one foot in diameter) shall be drilled into the bottom of the pool floor. The pool is to be filled in with crushed rock (maximum 3/4" size) for a minimum of 8" deep at the bottom of the pool, then clean fill may be added.
- If any structures (including a gazebo, patio cover, etc.) are placed over the pool or if you plan a future addition to the house over the existing pool area, a soils compaction report and other permits will be required at that time.
The Swimming Pool Removal Permit is NOT available on-line if you are:
- Placing any structures over the pool.

If the condition above applies, the permit shall be issued at the One-Stop
Permit Center, City Hall, 456 W Olive Avenue. Specific process information
is available at the
Building Division web site.

Inspections
-
Two inspections are required for pool removals. The in-progress inspection should be scheduled when the holes along the pool floor have been drilled and before the pool is filled. The final inspection should be scheduled after all work is completed.
