Zoning

What is Zoning?

Zoning is the means by which the community, through District Council, regulates land use and densities for specific properties within the District.

What are Zoning Bylaws?

Zoning Bylaws are used by the District to regulate the use of land. They state exactly what land uses are permitted in the community and provide information such as where buildings may be located, the types of uses and dwellings permitted, and standards for lot size, parking requirements and building height.
