Water safety and pools
During warm weather seasons, homeowners and renters should take the time to check their outdoor areas for potential safety hazards. Proper inspections now can help to keep your family and friends safe in the future.
Nationally, drowning is a leading cause of death for children under the age of five. Practice constant, adult supervision around any body of water, including pools and spas. If you're considering a swimming pool purchase, contact McKinney Development Services first to determine exactly what permits are needed and what requirements you must follow.
