SD-64 at a glance

|---|---|
| Dwelling units | Not limited by zoning (no zoning bylaw sets a dwelling count here). Each dwelling still needs septic and water approved to provincial standards |

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.
