Bylaw 500 Review and Update Project

The Bylaw 500 Review and Update Project is a targeted review and update to address known problems and to improve bylaw components that are unclear, inconsistent, or are challenging to administer or enforce. The outcome will be a new zoning bylaw with a new look and feel and a new bylaw number. Check out our FAQ section about what areas were focused on in the review.

It is proposed that draft Bylaw 2500 replace Bylaw 500. The first working version of draft Bylaw 2500 has been available for public review and comment since August 2022. Since then, the Bylaw has been updated based on community input, legal review, and further staff refinement. Please refer to the document library to review the draft bylaw and related documents.

Introducing Draft Bylaw 2500

Bylaw 2500 has a modernized look and feel and has been significantly reorganized. To review what is changing in Bylaw 2500 review the marked up version of the bylaw available in the document library and visit the FAQ section to learn more about the draft Bylaw 2500.
