Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The Village's consolidation is for convenience only; the official bylaw and amendments prevail. The s. 5.1 zone table calls the mobile home zone R-MH, but its section heading (5.6) and the rest of the bylaw use R-MP. 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.
