Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. Replaces Zoning Bylaw No. 1850 (adopted early 2026). Zones in Sections 9 to 15 share tables, so those zones all point to their whole section's line range; only the CD zones (Section 16) have their own ranges. 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.
