Chino Hills, CA Sign Regulations: Political Signs (2026)

046 authorizes them in any zoning district, residential or commercial, subject only to size, height, quantity, and timing limits. In residential zoning districts, each sign is capped at eight square feet and five feet in height, and the total area of all election signs on one property cannot exceed thirty-two square feet, though there is no cap on how many individual signs make up that total. In commercial, business park, institutional, and other non-residential zones, the per-sign cap rises to thirty-two square feet and eight feet tall, and the code places no limit on the number of signs in those zones.

Double-sided signs count only one face toward the area maximum. The section is timing-specific: signs cannot go up more than forty-five days before an election in which Chino Hills residents are eligible to vote, and every sign must come down within ten days after that election closes. Subsection F states the ordinance does not regulate the message on the sign itself, commercial or non-commercial copy is equally permitted, so a homeowner can display a candidate endorsement, a ballot measure position, or a business promotion on the same sign form.

043, for the general placement standards, such as keeping signs out of the public right-of-way, that apply on top of the election-specific limits. 080 enforcement provisions if a resident ignores the size, height, or timing rules.
