Nouvelles normes pour les piscines résidentielles: malgré le sursis, des villes poursuivent les inspections
AI Article Summary
Despite an announcement by Minister Geneviève Guilbault to postpone new residential pool safety rules, several cities, including Bromont, are continuing inspections. The government agreed to delay the implementation by a year due to cost complaints, but without the official regulation, inspections are ongoing. Any fines issued before the postponement will be voided. The new standards require safety measures like specified fence heights and self-locking gates.
What This Means for Canadian Contractors
This situation demonstrates how delays in regulatory announcements can complicate planning and compliance for Quebec contractors. Builders need to stay informed of regulatory developments and anticipate compliance needs to manage costs and adhere to timelines. For the workforce, this also requires training adapted to the new safety requirements.
