Land Use Bylaw

A Land Use Bylaw allows the community to nurture quality development, while ensuring that substandard development, or potentially hazardous development, is discouraged. The bylaw also serves to balance the diversity and complexity of development with a common vision for the community. The implementation and enforcement of the Land Use Bylaw is an effort to balance personal freedoms with the common good. Each decision made in accordance with this bylaw must consider that delicate balance.
