Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. Consolidated for public convenience only; the original bylaw and amendments at Municipal Hall prevail. In this bylaw each zone is a numbered Schedule (101 to 815), so section is the schedule number. Sub-zones carry a letter or number suffix on the map (for example CD2-A, CD7-1). The schedule heading for Harbourside Cohousing (813) says CD12 in the document, but the zone table and the map call it CD13. 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.
