## How it works

The Village of Lytton's [Zoning Bylaw No. 484, 1998](https://www.lytton.ca/media/1630) (consolidated February 19, 2025) assigns each property a zone. For each zone it sets permitted uses, minimum lot area and frontage, maximum height, setbacks and lot coverage. Zones include RR, R1, R2, C1, C2, C3, M1, M2, P1 and P2, plus CR-M and CR-T in the bylaw text. Land not shown on the map is zoned RR.

## Steps

1. Open the interactive GIS zoning map (hosted by the TNRD) or download the Zoning Map (Schedule D) from the Village's Land Use and Zoning page.
2. Find your property and note its zone code.
3. Find that zone in the Zoning Bylaw and read its permitted uses and building limits.
4. Call or email Planning to confirm your zoning or ask what a project would need.
