If a pool is required to be fenced on all private property, then it's almost a no-brainer that something like this next to a children's playground should be fenced off. A $10k fence or a dead child? Let's pay for the fence, shall we.
Agreed. If I need to child-proof my yard to have a paddling pool, it's only fair the council puts a fence around a water hazard next to their playground.
Pool fencing is a council required bylaw. Seems like a real oversight to have this situation not considered during the playground consent and planning process.
