Re-Zoning
A municipal Zoning By-law lists categories of land uses (e.g. agriculture, residential, commercial, etc.) and assigns each property one of these categories, lists what types of uses are allowed within a land use category, as well as requirements (e.g. building setbacks, minimum lot sizes, parking, etc.) for new development.
A Zoning By-law Amendment is a proposal to make a change to the Zoning By-law, either the requirements for new development, or a change to a property’s land use (e.g. from agriculture to residential).
Zoning By-law Amendment applications are decided on by the Municipal Council.
