Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The District calls this a convenience copy and accepts no responsibility for errors or omissions; a certified copy is available from the Director of Corporate Administration. Zoning is not a separate bylaw; it sits in Part 9 of the Municipal Code (the zoning division is Part 9, Division 2). 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.
