Are swimming pools considered attractive nuisances?

Yes, if someone gets hurt in your pool you might be liable.  You need to do what you can to make your pool unaccessible.  Put up a high fence with a lock upon it.  You might also consider getting an alarm that sounds if the surface of the water is disturbed.

There is.  The  Le Terrace Swim Club is located in Nutley. \n\nThe owners of that club violated NJ discrimination laws when they turned away "black" and "brown-skinned" customers and guests will pay $1,000,000 to settle a lawsuit brought against them by the ACLU of NJ who filed the case on behalf of six plaintiffs who were denied entry to the pool or who were retaliated against for defending the rights of others to enter.  \n\nMarci Shepard, was a teenager when her father died and she was invited to live with a couple for whom she had previously worked as a mother's helper. After joining Le Terrace in May of 2001, the family brought Marci to the club as their guest. An employee would not let Marci in, claiming that no more guests were being permitted that day. While the woman went to discuss the matter with the owner, the employee permitted a member and that member's white guest to enter the facilities. The family off the premises.\n\nYou can read all about it at the ACLU Website.\n\nThanks for sending me on this research...it's hard to believe stuff like this still goes on today (this case was decided in 2004) in the USA.

Public pools and locker rooms are hot beds for germs. Plus the chlorine from the pool, while it supposedly disinfects the water, nevertheless can be a source of distress, especially if the chlorine levels are not carefully monitored. Chlorine is a dangerous element, a toxic poison on its own, and when it is overdone, it can be toxic to the body. Even taking a shower, one is breathing in the chlorine gas as it steams into the air. I would stop going to that pool; your body is trying to tell you something. Use echinacea and goldenseal to overcome any infection you might have, as well as monolaurin (lauric acid), if  you can get your hands on it.

An open-air swimming pool is one that it is outdoors and not inclosed. Most open-air swimming pools need warm, temperate weather.

Absolutely not. But there have been cases where subtherapeutic levels of fluoride have been added to the water, too little to do any good. Happened in my town.

They have to be fenced in. It's state law. Plus it just makes good sense. If you don't have a fence around the pool, little kids can wander in and drown. I don't know what the height restrictions are, but I'm sure a good fencing company can tell you.

Wow!  I never thought that I would meet someone with the same fetish!  Swimming pool sounds turn me on in ways you "others" can only imagine.  Nice to meet you, questioner!

Well, The salt might get in your eyes, so I would say probably no, but Pools and Lakes are okay as long as you don't open your eyes underwater... mine rarely fall out unless I touch them.

This is an interesting matter.  It does seem to me that you may be liable for having an unguarded "attractive nuisance."  That the dog could get in is evidence that it was unguarded, and you knew or should have known that animals such as a dog could be killed on the site in the order of things as they existed.  I'd ask lawyer who does a lot of liability work.\n\nSecondly, though I have forgotten specifics, you will find that owners of animals are liable in varying degrees or not at all for different animals.  Cats go free, and maybe dogs unless they attack a person or a person's property, eg. sheep, etc.  Even then, in some states, the damage must reach some money figure before you can shoot the dog or sue his owner.  Court won't listen to a complaint about a dug up garden.\n\nEven owners of horses are often held to a different standard than cows under the old law of some states if the animal trods on your vegetable garden.\n\nIt's been years since I looked at case law, but you will be surprised.  I would watch out for a counter-claim for the loss of the dog.\n\nI would guess that you have All State or State Farm.  They rarely pay the full damages even were the claim is valid.  I think you should sue them with the argument that the "domestica animal" exclusion envisions only the pets of the insured and not feral animals.\n\nRecently when All State held out a substantial amount of a claim for an accident where their insured was entirely at fault, I filed an action myself, just drew up the cause of action and took it to the clerk and served the company at a local office.  That was Wed. and they called Monday.  I got all my damages plus the $75.00 filing fee.  When it comes to insurance companies, even if you make a simple small claims case, they will not want to defend it.  It will cost them far more to retain counsel where you are than the pool cover.  Besides, they may lose in any case.  Even a half-assed kitchen-talble lawyer want a couple hundred an hour now.  SUE THE BASTARDS!!! And do it yourself, pro se.

you need to tell us where this residential project is because geography is pretty important! Of course not less important is culture and customs where this is located! Otherwise if no restrictions exist and weather allows it then make lots of swimming pools and and lots of outdoor activities like  golf courses and tennis courts, having these features in your project plus a secure and environmentally clean atmosphere will enable the project to sell itself without much hassle...\n\nyou are welcome to contact me for further discussion

If someone enters your property and is injured by a hazardous condition you are probably liable.  Posting a "no trespassing" sign should shift at least some of the blame to the trespasser, especially if local laws permit prosecution.  Only a licensed lawyer in your state could advise you on the full implications of the law.  For example an "attractive nuisance" perhaps a swimming pool without an adequate fence, puts the owner at danger of liability because small children (who would have been excluded by a fence) may enter and drown.  Even posting the property may not be enough.

correct.\n\n      they are barely a concern.     they are folly\n \n             thank you for your very relevant question.\n\nTHERE ARE MANY, MANY VERY, VERY BIG ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES WHICH ARE CAUSING THE PROBABLE EXTINCTION OF OUR SPECIES WHICH ARE NOT GETTING TAKEN AS SERIOUSLY.

What makes them popular is that people just really want to be around them. Maybe it's their personality, maybe they have a huge built-in swimming pool. Whatever they have, it's something that people want.

5 names are just titles, they shouldnt be all that important. And umm...i guess that i just wanted to say that you are totally right about the whole swimming/gay thing. I hate it so much. I'm a girl and in the sport so i dont really have to deal with it as much but i hate it when my guys friends get pursicuted just cause they wear a speedo! Its so stupid but i guess thats just the way people are sometimes.

Yes some water parks can be very unsanitary. Although most water Parks take time to sterilize, and control unsanitary conditions often times certain aspects get over looked. Take for instance the public rest rooms, the items that fall on the floor out of the pool area or at the bottom of the pool like band aids. Clean up crews are not always working and some may be disgruntle employees.

they don't like the disturbance on the water
