Updated user-friendly Zoning and Development By-law

At a public hearing on July 5, Council approved changes that will make it easier to find and use information contained within the Zoning and Development By-law. Scheduled for release in mid-November, the updated by-law contains tables, diagrams, re-organized sections, hyperlinks, and accessibility features replacing the existing text-based format. The simplified and more consistent regulations will be easier to understand and apply, which will help to streamline permit review.

We will be hosting by-law orientation sessions in the fall. Check this site for updates and to sign-up to attend a session.
