What Applies at the County Level
Porter County Building Department
Porter County's building code, Title 15 of the County Code, defines swimming pools as included within the statutory meaning of "structure" per Indiana Code 22-12-1-24, so a pool requires the same improvement location permit and building permit as any other structure, with no small-pool carve-out at the county level. Pool installers must be registered with the Porter County Plan Commission for the current year before work begins, a separate step from holding a state contractor license. The county's adopted frost depth for footings is 36 inches, deeper than the 30-inch figure used in much of central Indiana.
