WILDOMAR, CA - Due to the current CoronaVirus (COVID-19) situation, the City of Wildomar has issued an order to temporarily relax and/or suspend certain City enforcement activities to protect businesses and increase housing opportunities in Wildomar. 

The changes to the activities include relaxed enforcement for business signage, stormwater inspections, construction activities and recreational vehicle parking. The City will also be reducing Business Registration fees as well as development impact fees. 

“We are trying to help out our businesses and residents as much as we can,” said Wildomar Mayor Dustin Nigg. “Relaxing some of our fees and rules is the small part that we can play in helping our community to cope and recover from this crisis.” 

For a full list of the relaxed/suspended enforcement activities, please visit this webpage.
These important measures will have to wait awhile to come back to the fore. For the life of me I can't imagine why we would suspend the requirement of an on-site sign for public hearing notifications. SMH

The language in Sections 4 and 5 seems to contradict itself, but I really don't get how allowing construction to continue at non traditional times is supposed to combat CV19. I get it, this is a goodwill gesture, and this is about the only thing our city can do... but why not relax every other city code while we're at it? I'm sure that they are also hardships to local residents and businesses too.
