Tuolumne County has no noise ordinance regulating bar or nightclub noise. Unincorporated areas have limited commercial nightlife. Establishments in the City of Sonora are subject to city noise rules, not county jurisdiction.
Tuolumne County's lack of a noise ordinance means there are no specific decibel limits or time restrictions for bars or entertainment venues in unincorporated areas. The county's commercial nightlife is concentrated in the City of Sonora (the county seat), which has its own municipal code. Unincorporated areas have limited commercial establishments. Conditional use permits for commercial venues may include noise-related conditions imposed through the development review process. Persistent noise disturbances from businesses can be reported to the Sheriff's Office for case-by-case evaluation.
No county noise violations for bars. CUP conditions may be enforced if applicable. Disturbances: Sheriff's Office.
