Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The District marks the consolidation "for convenience only". The zones are in Schedule A (the url above); the cover and enacting bylaw are at http://coldstream.civicweb.net/Documents/DocumentDisplay.aspx?Id=56951 and the zoning map is Schedule B. 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.
