Use of private residential pools for certified swimming classes authorized.
This bill allows homeowners to use their private residential swimming pools for certified swimming lessons when they are paid by a guest. It permits these classes only if the homeowner is a certified swimming instructor teaching one-on-one and no more than four people are in the pool at once. The law clarifies definitions for public pools, certified swimming classes, and certified swimming instructors to ensure compliance with national safety standards. This change affects homeowners who wish to conduct swimming lessons in their private pools and the organizations that offer certified swimming instruction.
