0716 The existence and enforcement by public officials of laws regulating swimming pool safety does not make a privately owned swimming pool public property for purposes of government tort liability; liability under the federal Civil Rights Act requires a conscious decision to violate constitutional rights, and, even then, a public entity is not vicariously liable for acts of public employees unless they were carrying out official policy.CitationAAITUI v GRANDE (Public Pool) 29 CA4 1369 [See: GovC 835, 830; Low v City 7 CA3 826; 42 USC 1983]
