"Not set" means the zone itself sets no figure; general rules elsewhere in the bylaw may still apply. Each zone's page has its uses, setbacks and the general rules that apply to it.

Where the bylaw is unclear

Points we couldn't settle from the bylaw's text. Ask before you rely on them.

  • P-4: A curling rink or public assembly hall needs a lot of at least 8,400 m², though the bylaw's imperial figure beside it (2.47 acres) is 1 ha, so the true minimum is unclear: ask the CSRD.

Site-specific exceptions listed in the bylaw by legal description can add or change uses for one property, and development permit areas, the ALR and building rules apply on top. Confirm with the CSRD's planning department before you buy or build.
