PK zoning in BC
PK means whatever the bylaw that zones the lot says: there is no provincial PK zone. 3 bylaws we've summarised use it, from 1 local government. Each calls it Parks and Protected Areas. What it allows is below, bylaw by bylaw.
PK in each bylaw
| Local government | Homes allowed | Smallest lot for a subdivision | Lot coverage | Height limit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Columbia Shuswap Regional District Parks and Protected Areas · Ranchero / Deep Creek Zoning Bylaw No. 751 | None | No minimum | 25% | Main buildings 11.5 m, accessory buildings 10 m |

Listed by local government, not ranked. "Not set" means the zone itself sets no figure; general rules elsewhere in its bylaw may still apply. Each zone's page has its uses, setbacks and the bylaw's sections.
Two lots both zoned PK under different bylaws can allow quite different things, and provincial law sets a floor of homes on most house zones in towns (how many homes can I build?). Site-specific exceptions, development permit areas and the ALR apply on top. Find the lot's own zone with the search above, then confirm with the local government before you buy or build.
