Zoning Bylaw

The Zoning Bylaw regulates how land, buildings, and properties can be used in Courtenay. It divides the city into zones — such as residential, commercial, industrial, and agricultural — and sets rules for each zone, including building heights, setbacks, lot coverage, and permitted uses.

The Zoning Bylaw helps:

  • guide growth and development
  • support safe, livable neighbourhoods
  • protect the character of the community
  • align land use with the Official Community Plan (OCP)

If you're planning to build, renovate, start a business, or develop land, the Zoning Bylaw is your key reference.
