43
3.11
NON-CONFORMING USES
3.11.1 The enactment of this by-law does not affect any land, buildings, or structures, or affect any
intensity of use of any land, building, or structure that lawfully existed prior to the effective date
of this by-law, in accordance with The Planning Act.
3.11.2 The intent of this section is to permit a non-conformity to continue until it is removed but not to
encourage its survival. Any expansion, addition, relocation, or reconstruction of a non-
conforming use or structure shall conform to the site requirements, parking, and loading
requirements of the zone in which it is located, unless varied by a variance order.
3.11.3 Subject to approval and issuance of a Development Permit where necessary, repairs or
incidental alterations to a building or structure occupied by a non-conforming use may be made
as follows:
a.
To the exterior of the building; and
b.
To those portions of the interior of the building occupied by the non-conforming use, or
in connection with an expansion of the non-conforming use.
3.11.4 Repairs or incidental alterations may be made to a non-conforming building or structure subject
to approval and issuance of a Development Permit, where necessary.
3.11.5 The right to maintain a non-conforming building or structure shall terminate when the structure
is damaged, in any manner whatsoever, to the extent that the cost of repairing such damage
exceeds 50% of the structure's assessed value on the last revised assessment roll.
3.11.6 If a non-conforming building or structure is damaged and repair costs are less than 50% of the
value of an equivalent new building or structure, repairs may occur if:
a.
The repairs do not introduce new non-conforming uses;
b.
The repairs do not intensify the non-conforming use or the structure's area;
c.
A building permit is obtained within 180 days of the date of damage; and
d.
The repair has begun within one year and is diligently pursued to completion.
3.11.7 A use that is accessory to a principal non-conforming use may continue as long as the principal
non-conforming use exists.
3.11.8 A non-conforming sign shall be subject to all the provisions of this By-law relating to non-
conformities, except as provided hereafter:
a.
A change in the subject matter represented on a sign shall not be considered a change
of use; and
b.
A non-conforming sign may be structurally altered, reconstructed, or replaced in the
same location and position provided that such structural alteration, reconstruction, or
replacement does not result in:
i.
The creation of a new non-conformity or an increase in the degree of non-
conformity;
ii.
An increase in the sign surface area; or
44
iii.
An increase in the degree of illumination.
3.11.9 No existing site shall be deemed to be non-conforming to the By-law regulations despite its
dimensions or area failing to meet the standards prescribed for proposed sites in the Zone in
which it is located. Development proposed on such sites shall still be required to conform to all
relevant By-law use provisions, setbacks, and building standards. A variance may be required for
new lots or uses established after the adoption of this Zoning By-law.
3.11.10 If a non-conforming use or structure becomes abandoned, vacant or unoccupied for a period of
twelve (12) consecutive months, or longer, it must then conform to all requirements of the
zoning by-law and zone within which it is located.
3.11.11 Wherever a requirement of site area, width, frontage, depth of required yard is reduced below
the minimum requirements of this By-law by virtue of a highway, road allowance, drain, right-of-
way or the section survey, such site shall be deemed to conform to the requirements of this By-
law. Site reductions resulting from subdivisions made by any owner shall not qualify for this
exception.
3.12
FEES
3.12.1 An applicant shall pay a development application fee in accordance with the fee schedule
established by a separate by-law or policy of Council. Separate fees may be charged for each
type of development application (Permitted Use, Conditional Use, Variance Order, Zoning By-
law amendment, Development Plan amendment, etc.) These fees may be in addition to any fee
required to cover the costs of advertising and notifications.
3.13
PUBLIC MONUMENTS AND STATUARY
3.13.1 Nothing in this By-law shall be so interpreted as to interfere with the maintenance or erection of
monuments, statuary, and similar structures.

USE TABLE ORGANIZATION
5.3.1
In the Use Table in Section 8.3, land uses and activities are classified into general "use
categories" and specific "use types" based on common functional or physical impact
characteristics, such as the type and intensity of land use, the types of customers or residents,
how goods or services are sold or delivered, and/or site-specific conditions. This classification
provides a systematic basis for assigning present and future land uses into appropriate Zones.
This classification does not list every use or activity that may appropriately exist within the
categories and specific uses may be listed in one category when they may reasonably be listed in
51
one or more other categories. The use category titles are intended to operate as an indexing
tool and do not form part of this By-law.
5.4
USE TABLE CATEGORIES
5.4.1
The following provides a description of the use categories found in the Use Table:
Agricultural and Rural Uses means a category of uses that includes land for agricultural
purposes or agriculture-related purposes. The listed uses include agricultural activities, different
types of farming uses, livestock operations, and various agri-businesses.
Commercial Sales and Services Uses means a category of uses primarily associated with the
sale, lease or rent of new or used goods or the sale and provision of services, including
associated office uses. This also includes the sale, service rental, and repair of vehicles and
related uses thereto.
Community, Recreation and Public Service Uses means a category of uses primarily associated
with public recreational, community based or utility-based land uses including parks, recreation
facilities, entertainment facilities, and similar.
Industrial Uses means a category of uses including activities and faculties engaged in providing
industrial services including manufacturing and production, warehousing and goods
movements, as well as waste, salvage and utility services.
Residential and Residential Related Uses means a category of uses dealing with different types
of living accommodations and associated uses.
Accessory Uses means a category of uses, normally accessory to other uses within the By-law,
that because of their intensity or site-specific characteristics, require additional consideration or
provisions.
5.5
INTERPRETATION OF USES AND REGULATIONS
5.5.1
Any person may apply to the Designated Officer or Council for an interpretation as to whether a
proposed use falls within any of the use categories or use types described in this By-law and, if
so, which one.
52
5.5.2
The authority to provide an interpretation does not include the authority to add a new
permitted or conditional use.
5.5.3
A decision of the Designated Officer with respect to interpretation under Subsection 5.5.1 is
final.

Animal confinement facility means a barn or an outdoor area where livestock are confined by fences or
other structures and includes a seasonal feeding area but does not include a feedlot or grazing area.
Designated area means an area designated for use as an urban centre, settlement centre, rural residential
