Pool + Spa Permits

The Johnson County Department of Health and Environment permits and inspects the operations of all public and semi-public pools in the city annually.

Overland Park transferred public and semi-public pool and spa management to JCDHE:

  • All new commercial pools will require plan approval from JCDHE.
  • Licensing and inspection duties now fall under their expertise, ensuring the highest standards for aquatic safety.
  • A swimming pool permit from Overland Park must still be obtained before constructing a new pool.
