ZONING BY-LAW 001-2021

On October 20, 2021, City of Vaughan City Council passed a new Comprehensive Zoning By-law 001-2021 for the city, which is currently under appeal. Until such time as the appeals have been resolved, all applications will be assessed for compliance with both the old Zoning By-law (By-law 1-88, as amended) and the new Zoning By-law (001-2021, as amended).

The Zoning By-law controls how land is used, including:

required building heights, setbacks, lot sizes, lot dimensions and parking requirements
types of buildings allowed and how they can be used
where buildings and other structures can be located

The Zoning By-law is updated regularly to ensure that the regulations reflect any changes to the by-law. The Office Consolidation for Zoning By-law 001-2021 was last completed on August 11, 2022.
