Valley Center Design Guidelines
The complete booklet of the Valley Center Design Guidelines including the Signage Regulations is now available at the Chamber of Commerce office. Roadside signs and fences are as important as landscaping to the "feel" of our community. While Valley Center's Design Guidelines leave plenty of room for individual creativity, they also promote dimensions and materials for signs and fences that have a rural flavor.

Guidelines for Signage:
• Monument sign or a freestanding single pole hanging sign; limited use of wall signs.
• Wood, with painted or raised letters or logos.
• Colors coordinated with buildings, limited to three, plus black and white
• External lighting – projected & shielded.
• One sign per 250-feet of frontage; one additional sign for properties with more than 250-feet of frontage.
• Properties with more than one establishment should consolidate their signs into a common sign panel.
• Height limits: Monument Sign is 42”; Pole Sign is 10-foot pole with a panel @ 8-feet.
• Area limits: Monument Sign Face is 18SF; Pole Sign Face is 15SF; Wall Sign is 10% of elevation area to a maximum of 100SF per building
• Dimensional limits: Monument Sign: Length is 6-feet; Width is 3.5 feet. Pole Sign: Length is 4-feet, Width is 4-feet.

Prohibited Signs:
• Roof signs and signs mounted on sloped parapets are not permitted.
