Zoning decides what types of land use are allowed where. The pdf Land Use By-law (14.48 MB) explains the requirements associated with each Zone.

If requested, the Development Officer will provide a signed zoning confirmation letter certifying the zoning for a parcel of land. It is important to note that these letters only relate to a specific period of time since the Land Use By-law is subject to change. Be sure to check with the Planning and Economic Development Department prior to any development project.
