Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The document is headed "Consolidated for Convenience". A draft Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 1192-2026 is posted on the District's documents page but is not part of the consolidation.
