Permits are a must for new pools, spas

I’m going to call them Monday. All those requirements say pool. I called somebody and couple years ago and said portable plug and play permit not required. My house had 110 plug and play when I brought it and nowhere in documents was permit nor was it mentioned. That 110v hot tub broke and I got rid of it. I have yet replaced it. There been several threads on hot tubs about plug and play and permits.
