How it works
The District of Tumbler Ridge's Zoning Bylaw No. 747 was adopted May 26, 2025 and consolidated for convenience with Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 755 (adopted October 6, 2025). It repeals Zoning Bylaw No. 585, 2012. Zone boundaries are shown on the Zoning Maps (Schedules B to E) attached to the bylaw, which the District's Zoning page posts as a PDF. We found no online map or address search.
Your zone controls which uses are permitted, density, parcel size and frontage, building height, setbacks, parcel coverage and off-street parking. Part 6 of the bylaw sets dimensional standards in Table 6-1, and Part 7 sets parking.
