Diamond A properties are regulated by our County Scenic Resources Combining District and the Sonoma County zoning laws. So, before you paint or put up or replace your fence; before you add a lot of expensive outside lighting; before you decide to regularly rent out your guest cottage, and definitely before you add onto your house or dig that swimming pool, consider these Sonoma County links to various regulations:
