Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The District also lists Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 953, 2024, which amends Bylaw 949; its changes are not merged into this text (https://hudsonshope.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/02-Zoning-Amendment-Bylaw-No.-953-2024-amends-949-website-version-1.pdf).
