    Join us to learn about the draft Comprehensive Zoning By-law. All residents are welcome to join the session and there will be a focus on zoning related topics in North Pickering.

    The purpose of the new Comprehensive Zoning By-law is to consolidate six existing land use By-laws and their site-specific exceptions into a single Zoning By-law. Zoning By-laws are regulations that municipal staff use to ensure structures are safe and our environment is protected.
