Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. Kimberley has two zoning bylaws. Bylaw 1850 covers most properties; the Alpine Resort Area zones (RHA-1, LA, RRS, RTA etc.) are in Bylaw 2016 (https://kimberley.civicweb.net/document/133475, zones carry that as source_url, text appended to text.txt after a [source] line). Both consolidations are for information only and not an official version; the Chief Corporate Administration Officer can supply certified copies. 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.
