Zoning

Zoning is provided by the Regional District in all rural areas (outside of municipalities and First Nations communities). Prior to purchasing property, or undertaking construction of a building or structure, it is suggested that you contact the Regional District to confirm the zoning and land use regulations for a property.

These bylaws contain regulations outlining the specific zone of each parcel of land and how a property may be developed. The regulations provide what land uses are permitted on a property and include specific provisions such as the maximum number of dwelling units; the minimum setback and maximum height requirements of buildings and structures; and the maximum parcel coverage allowed on a lot. Minimum parcel sizes are also regulated under these bylaws.
