The Zoning Board of Appeals may require that the drainage system for such pools be approved by the Town Building Inspector and may require that the filtration and chlorination system of said pool be of adequate design and capacity so as to protect the safety and health of the users of the pool and the general public of the Town of Webster.
Any and all persons who shall violate any of the provisions of this chapter or who shall fail to comply therewith or shall fail to comply with any order issued thereunder or shall build in violation of any detailed statement of specifications or plans submitted and approved thereunder or any certificate or permit issued thereunder shall severally, and for each and every such violation and noncompliance respectively, be subject to a penalty of $25 for each and every refusal to comply with an order and for each and every day that a violation exists, as the case may be.
