Vallejo may allow residential beekeeping with hive limits and setback requirements. Regulations vary widely between California cities.
Vallejo regulates residential beekeeping through zoning and nuisance ordinances. Where permitted, hive counts are typically limited (1 to 4 hives for standard residential lots). Hives must meet setback requirements from property lines, neighboring homes, and public areas. Flyway barriers (6-foot fence/hedge) may be required to redirect flight paths. Water source must be provided to prevent bees from visiting neighbors. Africanized bee concerns may affect policy. Some cities require registration with the county agricultural commissioner.
Unauthorized hives: removal order. Nuisance complaints: mediation then fines. Swarm incidents: emergency removal.
