Hello everyone! I'm making steady progress on my pool, I'm in the process of getting ready to file my permit. However, I'm having a heck of a time trying to add a deep end while staying within my county's code. I've attached my current design, the issue I'm having is where the shallow end transitions to the deep end. I don't have enough area for a proper shallow to deep end slope if I'm reading this correctly. Any suggestions? I'm adding the reference image I'm using as the basis of the design as well.

P21.A. POOL FLOORS The slope of the floor from the point of the first slope change to the deep area shall not exceed one unit vertical in three units horizontal (33-percent slope).

Shallow end. The slope of the floor from the beginning of the shallow end to the deep area floor slope transition point shall not exceed 1 unit vertical in 7 units horizontal.

Shallow to deep transition. The shallow to deep area floor slope transition point shall occur at a depth not less than 33 inches below the design waterline and at a point not less than 6 feet from the beginning of the shallow end.

Deep end. The slope of the floor in the deep end shall not exceed a slope of 1 unit vertical in 3 units horizontal (33 %slope). Shallow end water depths. The design water depth as measured at the shallowest point in the shallow area shall be not less than 33 inches and not greater than 4 feet. Shallow areas designed in accordance with Sections 809.6, 809.7 and 809.8 shall be exempt from the minimum depth requirement.

Am I reading this wrong? Is this saying that the shallow end can't slope more than 1 units vertical for 7 units horizontal? So once I transition out of the shallow area can I go to back to 1 unit vertical for three units horizontal?
