The City of Hamilton Building Division's swimming pool enclosure checklist, distinct from the Growth Management Division's grading review checklist for the same projects. Sections A to D record owner and property details; the site plan items the drawing shows — hardscapes, decks, retaining walls, septic systems and easements; installation questions on drainage and grade change; and the enclosure itself, including existing fences and garage overhead doors. Illustrated details cover vertical and horizontal wood, chain link, metal and glass panel fences, closing with a By-law 16-184 summary, sections 13 to 29.
