Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The City's consolidation is for convenience only and is not admissible in court unless certified by the Corporate Officer; the original bylaw prevails. Bylaw 2864 was adopted July 13, 2026 and replaced Zoning Bylaw 2518. The bylaw says zone locations are shown on the City's Interactive City Map; Schedule B zoning map PDF is civicweb document 54624. 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.
