How it works
The District of Barriere's Zoning Bylaw No. 111 was adopted in 2014. The posted consolidated copy includes amendments up to Bylaw No. 258 and is for convenience only. The zoning map is Schedule A of that copy.

Steps
- Look up your lot on the Schedule A map in the bylaw to find your zone.
- Read that zone's division for permitted uses and limits, and Division Three for rules that apply everywhere.
- For details on a particular parcel, lot or address, use the TNRD Interactive Map, which the District links from its permit page.
- For specific or unusual cases, contact the District Office.
Good to know
- The District's page does not say the TNRD map displays zones, so confirm the zone on the Schedule A map or with the District.
- Check the amendments: the posted copy is only a consolidation, and the District says to confirm with its office.
- Inquiries on planning go to the District Office, 250-672-9751 or inquiry@barriere.ca.
