Zeeland considers loosening temporary pool fence rules
Zeeland Planning Commission hears argument to ease four foot fence requirement for backyard pools. Todd Leva argues safety is manageable with a ladder that folds and a modest $300 pool, while officials note cost and risk. Change would take about three months, and mayor favors keeping current rules for safety. Leva plans to discuss with his daughters and return next year if needed.
