Chino, CA Sign Regulations: Holiday Displays (2026)

Under Chino's Sign Regulation Matrix (Table 16.05-1, adopted under Section 16.05.050), window signs generally must sit on the interior side of the glass and may cover no more than 25% of the window area per building face. Holiday displays get a narrow exception: they may be placed on the exterior side of the window instead of the interior. That exception is time-limited, the code requires holiday displays to be removed within 10 days after the holiday ends. No permit or height standard applies to window signs, but the removal deadline is enforced through the city's general sign-code violation and abatement procedures.
