Rules in the bylaw's general sections (parking, fences, suites, home businesses) also apply, and a lot can have site-specific rules. The zone details come from the unsigned second-reading version posted on the District's civicweb host, because the adopted Zoning-Bylaw.pdf (March 2026) on the District site is a scan with no text layer. The adopted bylaw may differ. 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.
