Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The Village posts the 2019 bylaw and each amending bylaw as separate PDFs in its bylaw library, with no consolidation. 508-A, 2021 rezones Lot 13, Block 4, PRP5308 (4 MacDonald Avenue) from P-1 to R-2. 508-B, 2024 adds secondary suites and secondary dwelling units to R-1 (document 3858). 508-C, 2024 (document 6951) is image-only with no text layer, so its changes are not known; it is not used. The bylaw's own zoning map (Schedule A, last page) is an image. 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.
