Mural Review and Approval
Murals are considered signs and, as such, are governed by the City’s sign ordinance found in Chapter 17.48 of the Visalia Municipal Code (“VMC”). Murals require the issuance of a permit from the City pursuant to VMC §17.48.030. Murals which are non-commercial, contain no advertising copy and which do not function as an advertisement are allowed, subject to review by the Mural Panel and final approval by the City Council (VMC §17.48.040(S).). These guidelines are provided to assist mural applicants through the process prior to presentation to City Council.
For more information on the policy and application or to ask questions, contact Brandon Smith with the Planning Division at (559) 713-4636, or [email protected].
