Comprehensive Zoning Bylaw

The Cowichan Valley Regional District (CVRD) is updating and consolidating NINE zoning bylaws into a region-wide Comprehensive Zoning Bylaw (CZB) for its nine electoral areas.
We'd like to hear how the proposed zoning relates to you.

Let's Talk Zoning!

The CVRD is finalizing its Modernized Official Community Plan (MOCP) and the Zoning Bylaw is being updated to align with its goals and policies. We’re taking this opportunity to streamline things.
Right now, the CVRD zoning bylaws vary on topics like suites, residential accessory buildings, residential agriculture, food trucks, and shipping containers. The new CZB will increase consistency for ALL electoral areas in the CVRD.
Your feedback will be considered as we refine the CZB for review in December 2024.
