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; certified copies of the original bylaws prevail. The R1 and R2 zones (Section 525, Bylaw 8799) are listed in the consolidation's zone table but their regulations are published in a separate District document, so those two zones carry their own source_url. The zoning guide for Section 525 is saved after the main bylaw in text.txt. Comprehensive Development zones that are repealed, abandoned or defeated are not listed. 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.
