Dairy Country Still Shapes the Lots
Chino still carries the shape of its dairy country. In the south, The Preserve was annexed in July 2003 across about 5,435 acres of former and existing farm and dairy property, planned with a mix of housing that includes equestrian estates, linked by paseos and trails, and with roughly half of the land left as open space.
College Park took a different route: voters authorized the city to rezone its 707 acres south of Edison Avenue, between Euclid and Central Avenues, from institutional to residential use. Elsewhere, the RD 1 and RD 2 districts still make room for horses on large lots.
The practical questions on a Chino property are which zoning district it sits in, where a cabana or equipment pad is allowed to go, and how much shade the summer calls for.
Lot size follows the zoning district: the Residential/Agricultural RD 1 and RD 2 districts set one-acre and 20,000-square-foot minimums for new lots, allow horse-keeping and require neighborhood equestrian trail easements, while RD 4.5, the district modeled on many of the city's existing suburban tracts, sets a 7,200-square-foot minimum.

The Ground Rules in Chino
Permits in Chino
City of Chino Development Services Department, Building Division
Residential permits are issued by the Building Division of Development Services, with applications filed online through the city's Accela permit portal. Chino's pool barrier standard states that a pool enclosure is always required, calls for at least two of the seven state drowning-prevention features on a new or remodeled pool or spa at a single-family home, and requires the barrier to be installed and inspected before the pool is plastered or filled.
The zoning code caps a detached ADU at 1,600 square feet in the RD 1 and RD 2 districts and 1,200 square feet elsewhere, and gives the city 30 days, rather than 60, to act on a completed application that uses one of its preapproved ADU plans.
What We Plan For
- Pool enclosure inspection before plaster
- Preapproved ADU plan submittals
- Screened pool equipment placement
- Rear-half siting for cabanas and sheds
- Equestrian-lot layouts in RD 1 and RD 2
- The Preserve, south of Kimball Avenue, spans about 5,435 acres of former and existing farm and dairy property, with roughly half planned to remain open space and a network of paseos and trails, so newer lots can sit beside working land.
- Non-habitable accessory structures such as cabanas and storage sheds must sit on the rear half of the lot and cannot block free and clear access to the rear yard, which settles early where a pool cabana or storage building can go.
- Mechanical equipment accessory to a structure, whether on a roof, a wall or the ground, must be completely screened from public view with architecturally compatible screening, a rule worth resolving before a pool equipment pad is placed.
- Long, hot inland summers make shade, cool deck surfaces and pool water temperature central design questions.

Costs, planning and design ideas for Chino homes.
Whole-Home Remodel Sequencing: What to Do First A whole-home remodel done in the wrong order costs 15 to 25 percent more. Here is the correct sequence, from structural and roof through to paint, and why each stage has to precede the next. Read guide Indoor-Outdoor Living Conversions in Southern California A 16-foot multi-slide door runs $18,000 to $45,000 installed. Here is how the full indoor-outdoor conversion works, from structural header to flush threshold to covered patio tie-in. Read guide Tarzana Outdoor Living: Costs by Lot Type Tarzana backyards run hot and deep. A working outdoor living build here (shade, hardscape, kitchen, lighting) typically lands between $85,000 and $220,000, and the ground drives most of the number. Read guide Porter Ranch Backyards: Wind, Slope and Fire Zones A full backyard transformation in Porter Ranch runs $95,000 to $280,000. Wind exposure, slope, HOA review and fire-zone material rules shape the design before anything about style enters the conversation. Read guide
