Zoning Code and Maps

All new construction in the City is regulated by the Zoning Code, which outlines the type of uses permitted on each parcel as well as the shape and character of what can be built. Some typical concerns addressed in the code include: how tall or big a structure can be, how close to the property line a structure can be located, and the height and location of fences and any other accessory structures.

Code related to land use and development may be found under the following Titles of the Claremont Municipal Code:

• Title 16 Zoning
• Title 17 Subdivision Ordinance
• Title 18 Signs
