Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. Consolidated for convenience only; copies of the original bylaw and amendments are at Langford City Hall. Parking (Part 4) and the Schedules are also published as separate PDFs on the bylaws page; the main PDF includes Part 4 and Schedule text. The zoning map (Schedule B) is not in the 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.
