Notices
Notices when selling, renting, or building
Scottsdale requires written pool safety notices at two moments: when a home with a pool is sold or rented, and before a new pool is built.
This is an independent referral guide. It connects homeowners with independent providers and may receive compensation. It is not a licensed contractor and it does not do the work.
Selling or renting
Scottsdale's amendments say anyone agreeing to sell or rent a dwelling with access to a pool, spa, or hot tub must give the buyer or renter written notice explaining pool safety and the responsibilities of ownership and use.
Building
Before constructing a new pool, spa, or hot tub, the pool contractor must give the owner written notice of the barrier requirements.
Keep copies
Save both notices with your permit records.

Public pages, linked so you can read the source yourself. Rules change, so confirm the current version with the agency before you rely on it.
Tell us about the yard
Say which part of Scottsdale you are in, how big the backyard is, and whether you have an HOA or a NAOS easement.
