Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The Village's consolidated version is "for convenience only". Zone text is in Schedule A, Part 600. The bylaw's own headings call Park One / Park Two "PA-1" / "PA-2" while its zone list and the Village's map say P-1 / P-2. 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.
