Dear Owners:
It has come to the attention of this office that the fence surrounding your pool does not
meet the requirements for the City of Salem Pool Ordinance.
I have enclosed a copy of this ordinance for you to review.
Please contact this office within ten (10) days upon receipt of this letter to discuss this
matter.
Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter.
