Do I need a permit for swimming pool or spa in Unincorporated Crowley County?
Yes. In Colorado, swimming pool or spa generally requires a permit, and Unincorporated Crowley County is no exception.
An in-ground or permanent above-ground pool or spa requires a building permit in essentially every Colorado jurisdiction. Colorado has no statewide building code, so the barrier requirements, including the water depth at which a barrier becomes mandatory, come from the code your city or county adopted. The model figure most jurisdictions work from is 24 inches, so confirm the local rule. Pool electrical bonding and grounding fall under Colorado's State Electrical Board and require a state electrical permit and inspection in addition to the local building permit.
