Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The text layer is real for the base bylaw, but the City's posted amending bylaws (Nos. 925 of 2018, 961 of 2020, 1049 of 2026 and a "zoning amendment bylaw 9") are scanned images with no text layer, so their changes are not in this text. The bylaw's zone map (Schedule A) is not in the posted PDF. 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.
