2025 Zoning Bylaw
Thank you for your comments! The public engagement period is now closed. A revised draft bylaw based on feedback received will go back to Council for second reading this September. Watch for updates here! Late feedback can be submitted to planning@lillooet.ca.
What is a Zoning Bylaw?
The Lillooet Zoning Bylaw is a legal document that regulates how land and buildings in Lillooet can be used. It sets rules for things like building height, property setbacks, land use types (e.g., residential, commercial, industrial), minimum off-street parking, and more. The bylaw helps guide growth, protect neighbourhood character, and ensure land is used in a safe, orderly, and efficient way. By setting limits to land uses, it prevents conflict between neighbours.
At the June 17, 2025 Regular Council Meeting, Council gave first reading to the new proposed Zoning Bylaw 2025-026. The public engagement period ran from June 25 until August 6, 2025. There was a Public Open House on July 14 from 5-8:30pm in Room 201 of the REC Centre.
Next Steps
Staff are now working on revising the bylaw based on feedback received from the public and external agencies. The revised draft Zoning Bylaw will return to Council this September for second reading, along with a full report on the feedback received. Watch for updates on this page!
