Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The Township marks the consolidation "for convenience only". The table of contents also lists L.H.2 (s. 805) and L.H.3 (s. 806) with broken bookmarks, but the body has no such sections; the body's s. 805 is L.H.4. 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.
