Zoning Bylaws
Zoning bylaws are regulations that control the use of land across the city. Zoning Bylaws detail how land may be used, where buildings can be located and include requirements such as lot sizes, parking and building heights.
We recently updated our current and former Zoning Bylaws and are working on improving the accessibility of these documents. In the meantime, you can request a copy of the revised Kingston Zoning Bylaw.
Former Zoning Bylaws
The former zoning bylaws have been repealed in their entirety with a few exceptions.
Properties that are still subject to the former zoning bylaws are shown as “Not Subject to this Bylaw” in the current Kingston Zoning Bylaw.
