Town of Comox · zoning
The CD12 zone in Comox.
Single Family Campgrounds. What the bylaw lets you build, how big the lot has to be, and how close to the lines you can go, in plain words with the section for each.
From the zoning bylaw. General information, not legal or planning advice. The adopted bylaw, as the Town of Comox reads it, is always the final word.

One lot, not the zone
What the zone page can't tell you
- Whether your lot is actually in this zone. Check the zoning map, not the listing.
- Whether a permit area, floodplain, stream setback or farmland reserve sits over the lot. Each adds steps.
- Whether site-specific rules or a covenant on title change what this table says.
- What council has decided on the street lately.
The lot report answers those for one address.
