Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The office consolidation has no Council sanction and is for convenience only; the original bylaws prevail. Zones are in Part VII (clauses 7 to 16); Schedule A defines zone areas.
