Do I need a permit for a swimming pool?

Yes. The Commonwealth's Building Code defines a swimming pool as "any structure intended for swimming or recreational bathing that contains water over 24 inches (610 mm) deep. This includes in-ground, on-ground and above-ground swimming pools, hot tubs and spas."
