What this form is

The packet collects project, property, pool, and contractor information for a swimming pool permit and includes requirements for plans, inspections, and pool barriers. It also includes a homeowner certification of door-alarm protections and a homeowner-contractor agreement about installing and inspecting the barrier. The city says the notarized protection-device form must be on file or available before the pool steel/bonding inspection if the homeowner uses it instead of an interior inspection.

Who needs it

Granbury homeowners and pool contractors applying for a pool permit may need this packet, including homeowners choosing to certify door-alarm protections instead of an interior inspection.

The homeowner signs the house-pool protection-device certification before a notary, who completes its Texas state jurat and administers the oath about the information provided.
