Review the draft Community Planning Permit (CPP) Bylaw and share your feedback

The draft CPP Bylaw is now complete and ready for public review and feedback.

To help make reviewing the bylaw a little easier, we've outlined some important highlights for you to consider.

View the complete draft CPP Bylaw.

  • Sections 1 and 2 explain how the Bylaw is administered and applied and set out the Community Planning Permit System structure for the County. These sections provide directions on how to read and navigate the Bylaw.
  • Section 3 outlines land use permissions and development standards. Development standards are organized into general, use‑specific, zone‑specific, and overlay standards, which should be reviewed together to understand all applicable requirements.
  • Section 4 contains definitions, figures, and tables that provide additional support for interpreting technical provisions used throughout the Bylaw.
  • Zoning schedules and mapping are currently digital and can be accessed through the Zoning Comparison Tool, which allows users to identify zoning and applicable regulations for their property.

Share your feedback until June 14, 2026.

The Property Zoning Form is the primary way to submit zoning‑related questions or feedback.

You can share details, upload supporting documents (such as photos or reports), and include your contact information if you would like a response. This form helps the County track questions, comments, and responses related to specific properties or areas, so they can be reviewed consistently as part of the CPPS process.
