Swimming Pool Permits
Property owners installing swimming pools are required to obtain a Swimming Pool Enclosure Permit from the Town of Richmond Hill. This is required to ensure that the requirements of the Town's zoning by-laws, fence by-law and grading requirements are met.

New Process for Pool Permits

Effective Monday, September 15, 2008 permits for inground and above ground pools and hot tubs will be issued by staff in the Engineering and Public Works Department, rather than the Building Services Division. Engineering and Public Works is located on the 5th floor of the Municipal Offices at 225 East Beaver Creek Road.

Applications for pools will be done in conjunction with the site alteration permit, which is currently a prerequisite for applying for a pool permit.

There is no change in fees or securities associated with this change.
 
If you have any questions with the new process please contact Engineering staff at
(905) 771-8830, ext. 3584 or 3559.

Swimming Pool Enclosure Permit applicants will be required to enter into an agreement with the Town and provide a security deposit to ensure that the construction of the swimming pool does not adversely affect drainage or the municipal road frontage.
