Most cities now require at least a six foot fence with a lockable gate. Even more and more rural counties are now requiring this also. It is also a good idea to have a fence and gate to keep from having a liable suite from being filed against you incase of one of the local kids drown in it. Good luck. A new national pool code was just signed into law in Dec 2007 called The Virginia Graeme Baker Pool & Spa Safety Act of 2007. The law give the authority over to the Consumer Product Safety Commission ( CPSC ) . The CPSC already has some guidelines in print.

Yes, almost all cities or counties or states have laws about this requiring pools to be secured by fences. The dimensions and other requirements differ, so consult your local building code.
