Zoning Plan and Usage and Standards Grid
The quality of life for residents is closely linked to coherent development across the entire territory. To this end, the Act respecting land use planning and development grants municipalities the right to acquire tools to regulate urban land use to ensure harmony between different sectors.
One of these tools is the zoning by-law. The zoning by-law aims to divide the territory into zones in order to lay down standards relating to land use and buildings in addition to building installation and appearance. Preference is generally given to industrial use in sectors located farthest from residential sectors, whereas commercial use is preferred on the main arteries.
To find out if use is allowed at a given location, you need to refer to the zoning plan which shows boundaries and the usage and standards grid which identifies groups and categories of use authorized at a given location.
