Zoning Bylaw update in progress
The Zoning Bylaw is in the process of being updated alongside the 2040 Official Community Plan. View the draft Zoning Bylaw and interactive draft Zoning Bylaw map (or PDF draft map) to see what's changing. Visit Get Involved to learn more and provide feedback.
The final version of the new Zoning Bylaw is expected to be completed in early 2022.
Current Zoning Bylaw (Bylaw No. 8000)
The Zoning Bylaw governs land use and the form, siting, height, density of all development within the City boundaries to provide for the orderly development of the community and to avoid conflicts between incompatible uses. The Bylaw divides the City into residential, commercial, agricultural, institutional, industrial and other zones. Each of these zones has its own specific regulations.
