It sets, for each zone, the permitted uses, density, siting, size and dimensions of buildings, landscaping and screening, lot size for subdivision, and parking and loading. Each zone sets its own lot coverage, setbacks and height.\n\nTo find your zone, use the District's Interactive Planning Map online, or the Zoning Map (Schedule A of the bylaw). Both are linked from the District's mapping page.\n\n## Steps\n\n1. Open the Interactive Planning Map or Schedule A and find your lot.\n2. Note the zone code, then read that zone's section in the Zoning Bylaw.\n3. If you are unsure, book an appointment with the Planning Technician.\n\n## Good to know\n\n- Contact: Kayvon Bahrami, Planning Technician and Clerk, planning@lillooet.ca or 250-256-4289.\n- The map file on the mapping page may be older than the bylaw's adoption date.
