Zoning

Show or hide navigation More

Zoning By-law

The Comprehensive Zoning By-law manages land use within the Municipality. It states how land can be used, standards for use and location and use of buildings and structures. The Zoning By-law implements the goals and policies outlined in the Official Plans.

The Municipality undertook a review of its Comprehensive Zoning By-law in 2017 in accordance with the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, as amended.  Open houses and/or public meetings were held on May 28, July 8, September 25, October 10 and December 2, 2017. On May 14, 2018, Council passed the following resolution:

THAT Council defer consideration of passage of the draft Comprehensive Zoning By-law and Lion's Head, Ferndale and Tobermory Official Plans until 2019, at which point, Council will provide further direction to staff. 

As such, all draft documentation has been removed.

Official Plans
