It is posted in the Village's [Bylaw Library, Village of Salmo](https://salmo.ca/council/bylaw-library/). The posted copy is titled \"Website Copy\". The zones are on Schedule B (Zoning Map), and for each zone the bylaw sets permitted uses, lot size and frontage, site coverage, building size, setbacks and parking.\n\nThe zones are R-1, MH-1, RM-1, ER-1, C-1, C-2, M-1, P-1 and RR-1.\n\n## Steps\n\n1. Open the Zoning Bylaw from the bylaw library and find Schedule B (Zoning Map). The map pages are images.\n2. If you cannot tell which zone your lot is in, call the Village Office at 250-357-9433 or email info@salmo.ca with your address.\n3. Read that zone's section for permitted uses and limits.\n\n## Good to know\n\n- No online map or lookup tool was found on the Village website.\n- Lots may also need Development Permits under the Official Community Plan.\n- The Contact page does not name a planning contact; start with the Village Office at 423 Davies Avenue.","sources":[{"url":"https://salmo.ca/wp-content/uploads/2026/11/773-Zoning-Bylaw-2026-Website-Copy.pdf","title":"Zoning Bylaw No. 773, 2026 (PDF), Village of Salmo","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://salmo.ca/council/bylaw-library/","title":"Bylaw Library, Village of Salmo","accessed":"2026-11-08"},{"url":"https://salmo.ca/contact/","title":"Contact, Village of Salmo","accessed":"2026-11-08"}],"sources_read":"2026-11-08","review":{"status":"machine_checked","badge":"Checked against official text","label":"Checked by script, not yet by a person: the official wording behind 5 of 5 facts was matched to the official text."},"urls":{"html":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/salmo/zoning-lookup/","markdown":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/salmo/zoning-lookup.md","json":"https://govhandbook.com/ca/bc/salmo/zoning-lookup.json"}}
