in effect

Sec. 54-129. - Walks and decks. (a) Walks or decks shall be continuous around the pool with a minimum width of eight feet, including any curb at the pool edge. Non-Class A indoor commercial pools may elect to submit plans for decks which are less than eight-feet wide. Approval for such decks shall be contingent upon approval from both the State and Local Health department jurisdictions and based on the current 10-State Standards. (b) A minimum of a three-foot walk or deck width shall be provided on the sides and rear of any piece of diving equipment. (c) All walks, decks, and terraces shall have a minimum slope of one-fourth inch per foot to points of disposal. Where skimmers are used, the walks, decks, and terraces shall not slope to the pool. The point of disposal shall be such that the wastewater does not adversely affect the pool water quality nor does it create a nuisance or sanitary hazard around the pool perimeter. (d) The finished texture of walks or decks shall be non-slip and such that there will be no discomfort to bare feet. Walks and decks shall be maintained in a manner to prevent safety hazards. Irregularities in decks due to cracking or heaving in excess of one-fourth inch shall be repaired. All walks and decks shall be washed and cleaned at least once a day, and otherwise maintained in a clean and sanitary condition. (e) Hose bibbs shall be provided around the perimeter of the pool enclosure at intervals such that all walks, decks and terraces may be reached with a 50-foot hose. (Code 1980, § 54-129; Ord. No. 34533, § 1, 5-12-98)
