Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The District publishes no consolidation, only the original bylaw and each amending bylaw in its document center (https://districtofstewart.civicweb.net/filepro/documents/136). Amending bylaw 958 (R1 to C2) has no text layer (scanned image only). The 2019 zoning map legend also shows "General Commercial/Work Camp" and "Cannabis Manufacturing and Production" zones that are not in the bylaw text or any amending bylaw found; the second pass should look for them. 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.
