Pool Rentals & Lane Allocation Guidelines

The City of Burbank Parks and Recreation Department manages aquatic facility use to support safe operations, equitable access, and balanced programming for the community.

Pool space is shared between public recreation, City programs, schools, and permitted organizations. Use of aquatic facilities is governed by the City of Burbank Aquatics Division Pool Allocation Guidelines for Permit Groups.

The guidelines outline policies related to:

  • Priority use of aquatic facilities

  • Lane allocation considerations

  • Permit application procedures

  • Residency and nonprofit classification

  • Organized aquatic activity requirements

  • Permit holder responsibilities

  • Payment, cancellations, and facility use policies

Permit applications are reviewed based on facility availability and City programming priorities.

Users requesting lane space, organized aquatic activities, or facility rentals should review the full guidelines prior to submitting a request.
