All signs in the City of Cathedral City are regulated in an effort to promote their effective use and to prevent visual clutter. Nearly all signs in Cathedral City, including most temporary signs, require a permit.

It is important to be familiar with the permitting requirements, restrictions on sign placement, and prohibited signs, prior to placing any sign in the city.

The Code Compliance Division conducts routine inspections as well as concentrated sign enforcement campaigns to ensure compliance with sign regulations.
