Engage with us! Fence and Swimming Pool Enclosure Bylaw Proposals

In spring 2022, the County of Brant reviewed Fence By-Law 54-03 to update its policies relating to fences located on private property throughout the County, and for the inclusion of enclosures around swimming pools. Fence By-Law 54-03 was originally approved in 2003.
As a result, a new draft Fence By-Law and separate Swimming Pool Enclosure By-Law are being proposed.
The revised Fence By-Law proposes:
- changes to height regulations
- includes regulations relating to privacy screening.
The new draft Swimming Pool Enclosure By-Law proposes:
- to regulate enclosures surrounding privately owned swimming pools including above ground and hydro-massage pools,
- maintenance of enclosures to ensure community health and safety
- changes to the height regulations
If approved, these by-laws will apply to all properties within the County of Brant. The draft Fence and Swimming Pool Enclosure By-laws can be viewed here under documents.
