T1: Railway

What the zone allows

Homes allowed

None: the zone lists no dwelling

Main uses

Railway lines, stations and yards, including storing and repairing rolling stock

The zone sets no lot size, coverage, height or setbacks of its own (s. 11.5).

Fences up to 3 m in the rear yard of any lot next to a railway (s. 5.8.4).

Divisions 2 to 5 of the bylaw (definitions, general rules, parking, landscaping and fences) also apply.

Fabric-covered buildings only as accessory buildings, up to 40% of the main building's floor area (s. 3.10).

Up to four for storage, each at most 12.1 m long, under the accessory building limits, never lived in and never holding fuel or explosives (s. 3.11.4).

Beside a provincial highway, buildings and structures stand at least 4.5 m from that lot line (3 m where a public lane gives secondary access); less needs the Ministry of Transportation's consent and a variance (s. 3.15).

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 City of Kamloops' planning and development department before you buy or build.
