Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The Town posts the bylaw as adopted on 17 June 2025; no later amendments are folded into this PDF. Schedule A (the zoning map) is a separate PDF. 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.
