Yes, an above ground pool sitting on the grass will eventually kill the grass. Most above ground pool manufacturers recommend that you remove the grass before filling the pool because the grass can also harm the liner over a long time. The actual chlorine in the pool water is unlikely to damage the grass on its own. More likely is that the water itself may damage depending on how much water gets splashed out; the exact type of grass; and how well the ground drains.

Salt is actually good for your grass, but if you constantly backwash in the same place you could flood your grass overwatering it. And no, of course splashing saltwater will not kill your grass. Well, in my experience, our salt-water pool killed the grass around the pool - just from splashing. Also, the pool maintenance guys accidentally spilled pure salt on an area of grass and killed it. in fact nothing will grow back there now. We have just conveted to a non-salt water pool to see how well the grass rebounds. I wonder what effect the chlorine has on the grass at 3.0 ppm. BTW, there is only 12 inches of stone coping separating the pool and the grass. I'm curious where the first responder got his information.

How do you remove grass from your garden beds and stop it from coming back?

If you have plants growing you can pull out the grass then put some sort of barrier between the dirt and the air. There is something I heard about that will let water get in for the plants. Then you need to put some compost over it to keep the sun out for the weeds and grass.
