Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The bylaw PDF is posted on the District's Resource Library (https://www.centralsaanich.ca/municipal-hall/resource-library/central-saanich-zoning-bylaw-no-2270-2026). No consolidation date is stated; the text is the full bylaw, and its zone list (s. 6.1) shows CD-BC where the zone section is headed CD-BSC. The water zones (W, W-BH, W-M, W-MB) are filed under group Rural for want of a closer group. 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.
