The draft Swimming Pool Inspection Program specifies how Council conducts mandatory inspections of swimming pools located on private property.
Following its introduction in 2013 it has remained unchanged and needs to be updated to reflect current regulatory requirements and operational practices. Changes have been made to align with the Swimming Pool Regulation 2018 and current legislative requirements.
Background
Section 22B of the Swimming Pools Act 1992 requires Council to develop and adopt a Swimming Pool Inspection Program. The North Sydney Council Swimming Pool Inspection Program was developed and adopted in 2013. This report outlines the proposed update to align the program with current legislative requirements, including the Swimming Pool Regulation 2018.
