Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The Regional Municipality has two zoning bylaws: this one for the Fort Nelson townsite, and Rural Zoning Bylaw No. 137, 2017 (office consolidation December 2024, https://nr.civicweb.net/document/125394/) for the Rural Official Community Plan area; the rural zones below carry that bylaw as source_url, and their pdf_page numbers are pages of that PDF. Both are office consolidations "not the official version of the bylaw". Codes C-1, C-2, RR-1, RR-2 and A-1/A-2 vs A exist in both bylaws with different meanings. 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.
