How it works

The Village's Public Cadastral Land Use Web Map (Radium Hot Springs Public Webmap) shows each parcel's zone, zoning bylaw, Official Community Plan designation and any development permit areas. The Zoning Map is also posted in the Village Document Centre.

The rules are in the Zoning Bylaw No. 528, adopted February 9, 2026 and amended by Bylaw No. 532 (April 13, 2026), which changed the R3 zone to allow stand-alone short-term rentals on one strata plan. For each zone it sets permitted principal and accessory uses, minimum parcel size and frontage, maximum parcel coverage, density (dwelling units per parcel), building height, and setbacks from each parcel line.

Steps

  1. Open the Village web map from the Maps and GIS page.
  2. Search by civic address, PID or BC Assessment folio number.
  3. Click the parcel to see its zone and development permit areas.
  4. Find that zone in the Zoning Bylaw and read its section.
  5. For help, call or email Building and Development Services.
