Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The Village adopted this bylaw in 2026 and says it replaces the old Zoning Bylaw (parts dating from the 1980s). The zoning map is Schedule A, on pages 73 onward of the PDF. Zone pages are taken from the bylaw text by a research agent and have not yet been reviewed by a person: confirm with the bylaw before you rely on them. How answers are checked.
