Seaton Area Zoning By-law 1
How to Read and Use This By-law
This introduction explains how to read and use this Zoning By-law and is solely for the
purposes of assisting the reader. Readers unfamiliar with zoning by-laws are encouraged to
read this introduction.
This introduction does not constitute a legal part of this By-law.
All properties within the boundaries of this Zoning By-law have a zone associated with them
as shown on the maps in Section 12. Each zone is subject to requirements and restrictions.
These requirements and restrictions are found in Sections 4 through 9. These Sections are
differentiated based on five broad land use categories – Residential, Mixed Use, Employment,
Community Use and Natural Heritage and Open Space.
Within each Section/land use category, multiple zones are described. At the beginning of
each Section 4 through 9, the permitted uses for each zone are laid out in a table format, with
any qualifications numbered within the table and listed directly following the table.
Following the table of permitted uses, each zone contains a table setting out minimum and
maximum requirements for lots and buildings addressing such matters as lot area, lot
frontage, yard setbacks, building height among others. In the residential and mixed use zone
categories, these requirements are set out according to different building types. In the other
zone categories, these requirements are generally set out according to the zone.
Site-specific provisions, where required, are detailed following the provisions of each zone.
In addition to the zone specific requirements and restrictions, a number of general provisions
apply to development in all zones. These general provisions are set out in Section 2 and
address such general matters as yard encroachments, legal non-conforming uses, garages
and accessory buildings, swimming pools and other accessory structures, accessory dwelling
units, and home-based businesses among others.
Section 3 contains parking regulations that also apply to development in all zones.
The recommended process to verify the zoning applicable to a property is to:
a) Locate the property in the maps in Section 12 and identify which zone it is in;
b) Determine which Section / land use category in the by-law that the zone is contained in
(ie. Section 4 Residential);
c) Review the permitted uses applicable to that zone, which are contained in the “Uses
Permitted” table at the beginning of each Section 4 through 9;
d) Review the zone provisions applicable to that zone, which are contained in the “Lot and
Building Requirements” table in the second subsection of each Section 4 through 9;
e) Review any applicable site-specific zones contained within Sections 4 through 9;
f) Review the general provisions and parking regulations in Sections 2 and 3; and
g) Contact the city to ensure up-to-date information and whether the property is subject to
any variances.
