POOL ENCLOSURE PERMIT APPLICATION What are the steps? The Township of South Glengarry’s Pool Enclosure By-law 16-18 requires all owners or agents who want to construct a pool on a property to apply for a “Pool Enclosure Permit”. Our primary concern is to ensure the safety of all people. A Pool Enclosure permit is required for all pools that can hold more than 0.6m of water at any point.
