Variances

A Variance is a process that allows a deviation from the zoning by-law for a particular property. If a property can not meet the requirements of the zoning by-law due to unique circumstances, the approval authority may grant an affected owner an opportunity from the zoning by-law. A variance can be approved to allow a modification to development standards such as minimum building setbacks and height restrictions.
