## How it works

The Village posts a Zoning Map (PDF) on its [Zoning and Development](https://warfield.ca/village-office/zoning-development/) and Maps pages. There is no online address search. [Bylaw 975](https://warfield.ca/wp-content/documents/bylaws/975-Zoning-Amendment-Bylaw-SIGNED-with-Map.pdf) replaced the map in the Zoning Bylaw with a Zoning Map dated August 2025 (adopted September 8, 2025), but the PDF linked on the website is named with a June 2024 date, so confirm your zone with the Village.

The [Village of Warfield Zoning Bylaw No. 896, 2021](https://warfield.ca/wp-content/documents/bylaws/Warfield-Zoning-Bylaw-Consolidation-FINAL_2024_06_27.pdf) sets the rules. The Village's copy is consolidated for convenience to June 2024, including amendments up to Bylaw 959. Later changes are in Bylaw 975 (zoning map, September 2025) and [Bylaw 979](https://warfield.ca/wp-content/documents/bylaws/Bylaw-979.pdf) (text, December 2025).

## Steps

1. Open the Zoning Map and find your parcel and its zone.
2. In the Zoning Bylaw, Table 5-1 lists each zone's permitted uses. Table 6-1 gives the minimum parcel area and width, yards, maximum height and parcel coverage. Parking is in Table 4-1.
3. Check the amending bylaws for later changes.
4. Call the Village Office at 250-368-8202 or email info@warfield.ca to confirm your zone.
