Re: Pools Variances—Not continuous Four Feet unobstructed path around pool
l3c;u.e t-c;�;►�e.� �9/ sa.� s�c� �.��
Based on inspections from the fall 2014 of your pool, it was noted that your pool would need a
variance from the Board of Health based on a violation of the state swimming pool code of
minimum standards regarding not continuous four feet unobstructed path around the pool.
Reference 105 CMR 435.13(1) "Walkways shall be continuous around the poo)with a minimum
width of four feet of unobstructed clear distance including a curb at the pool edge, if such a
curb is used."
At the Board of Health Hearing in the Spring of 2015 for your variance proposal from 105 CMR
435.13(1) the Board approved the variance request with a condition requiring the installation
of a tiled or painted sign with lettering in a contrasting color (red, or black) on top of each of
the watls of the spa reading, " Do not Sit,Stand or Walk on this Ledge."
Please respond within 10 days of receipt of this letter, of when this work will be completed.
Your pool will Not be allowed to oaen for the 2016 season until this work is completed.
If you would like I can meet you at your facility to review the proposed corrections.
If you should have any questions please feel free to call me at (508) 398-2231 ext. 1241.
