    Fiberglass pools not allowed by the city!? Alternatives?

    I'm trying to find out what they mean by "single-piece". The guy who built our current pool said he had done several fiberglass pools in Lakeway. He said the permit application just said "inground pool" without saying anything about the build process. I really had my mind set on this fiberglass...

My goal is to have a CYA level of 20ppm or less. Personally I don't see a problem with that but I'm curious why the recommended levels are...
