Zones in Masset
From Village of Masset Zoning Bylaw No. 677, 2025 (published as a DRAFT). The Village posts only a draft of Bylaw 677 ("Adopted: Month XX, 2025"), which would repeal Zoning Bylaw No. 422, 1994. No adopted version or copy of Bylaw 422 was found on the Village site, so adoption status must be confirmed. Table 8.1 lists a Manufactured Home Park (MHP) zone and different codes for the multi-unit and mixed residential zones than the section headings; this list follows the section headings and has no MHP section. Each zone has its own page with its uses, lot sizes, heights and setbacks. Zone pages are drafts taken from the bylaw text and not yet reviewed by a person.

How it works
The Village of Masset's bylaws page posts a Draft Zoning Bylaw and a Draft Zoning Bylaw Map (PDF). The draft Zoning Bylaw No. 677 is not shown to be adopted: its cover reads "Adopted: Month XX, 2025", and it says it repeals Zoning Bylaw No. 422, 1994. The Village's news page also lists a zoning item, so ask Municipal Hall which bylaw is in force.
The draft says no land, building or structure may be developed, used, built, altered or subdivided except as the bylaw allows. It divides the Village into zones shown on its Schedule A Zoning Map. Each zone sets permitted uses, lot coverage, height and setbacks.
Steps
- Open the draft zoning map and find your lot.

Good to know
