A User's Guide to the Zoning By-law
Zoning By-law 2016-10 applies to all lands within the Corporation of the City of
Clarence-Rockland. This "User's Guide" is intended only to make the By-law easier
to understand and reference, and to outline how to use the By-law to find basic
zoning information.
If you have any questions about the content of or how to interpret this By-law, or
to obtain any content of this By-law in an alternate format, please do not hesitate
to contact a member of the Planning Services department.
Purpose of the Zoning By-law
A Zoning By-law is a "rule book" that controls building, development and site
alteration. Zoning By-laws regulate how land and buildings are used, the location
of buildings, minimum lot sizes and dimensions, building heights, and other
provisions necessary to ensure proper development.
The Zoning By-law implements the community vision and policies for future growth
and development expressed in the Official Plan of the Urban Area of the City of
Clarence-Rockland, the Bourget Official Plan, and the United Counties of Prescott
and Russell Official Plan (UCPR OP). The Zoning By-law puts the vision and policies
of the documents into terms, permissions, and numbers that can be measured.
How to Use this By-law
The following steps describe how to identify what uses can be undertaken and the
size of buildings that can be erected on a specific property. Planning Services staff
is always available to answer your questions and confirm the zoning regulations and
planning policies applying to your property:
1.
Start with the Zoning Maps attached to the By-law or the County's
interactive map to determine your zone
1.
Find the Zoning Maps which forms part of the Zoning By-law that shows
the applicable property. Alternatively, the United Counties of Prescott
and Russell have an interactive map system available for the public. This
site allows you to search your property zoning, the soil capability or
where a particular road is located (https://alacarte.prescott-
russell.on.ca/Html5Viewer/Index.html?viewer=Public) amongst other features
and constraints.
2.
Locate the property on the Map or on "alacarte"; and,
USER'S GUIDE

Page 2
3.
Determine what Zone the property is in.
The Zones are identified by a short-form symbol, a series of letters and numbers.
For instance, if a property is in the "Urban Residential Third Density (R3) Zone" it
will be identified as "R3" on the Zoning Maps.
2.
Turn to the appropriate Part of the By-law (Parts 6 through 21) for the
use permissions and building regulations applying in your zone.
Once the permitted uses are known, turn to the next section of the by-law,
where the zone requirements can be found in a separate table. There are
multiple Residential Zones because of the wide range of housing forms and
styles in Clarence-Rockland. Other Parts of the By-law have fewer tables.
These regulation tables' states what standards apply to any buildings and
structures associated with the permitted use.
These regulations establish the "building envelope" for development on a lot.
The amount of developable area and the types and sizes of buildings allowed
are further regulated by other Parts of the By-law.
USER'S GUIDE

Page 3
Additional regulations may follow the use permission and building regulation
tables and should also be reviewed to ensure your building plans comply.
3.
Turn to the appropriate Part of the By-law (Parts 6 to 21) for any site-
or area-specific provisions applying to your property.
Referring back to step one above, if a property has some additional site- or
area-specific provisions, a number will be added to the zone symbol on the
Zoning Maps in attachment; for example, "CG-2". These site- or area-specific
provisions modify the regulations for lands covered by that provision. These
provisions are listed at the end of each zone.
If the property is subject to a Holding Provision, the symbol will be followed by
the letter "h" and a number (i.e. "CG-h1"). A Holding Provision restricts the
uses on a property to only those permitted under the Hold (typically, only
existing uses), until a series of conditions are cleared. These conditions and
any modified provisions that apply while the Hold is in place, may be listed at
the end of each zone following any site-specific exception.
If the property is subject to an Interim Control By-law, a hatched line overlay
will be shown on the property along with a letter "i" and number (i.e. "i3").
These properties are subject to a temporary removal of permitted uses or
modified building or structure regulations, pending completion of a study and

potential amendment to the Zoning By-law. These provisions may be listed at
the end of each zone following any Holding Provision.
If the property is subject to a Temporary Use By-law, the symbol will be
followed by the letter "t" and a number (i.e. "CG-t1). The intent of a
temporary use by-law is to allow a use of land temporarily until the ultimate
development vision for the area can be achieved through development, or
when non-permanent uses are required for a short period of time. These
permissions and associated provisions are listed at the end of each zone.
4.
Turn to Part 4 to identify general regulations that apply in all zones.
After determining what standards may apply to a permitted use on the
property, refer to the General Provisions section of the By-law to determine
what provisions in that section may apply to the property. A review of this list
will allow identification of regulations which may be applicable, and which
should then be reviewed.
5.
Turn to Part 5 of the By-law for the parking, loading and landscaping
requirements for your use.
Part 5 of this By-law contains the requirements associated with motor vehicle
parking spaces, bicycle parking spaces, loading spaces, stacking spaces with
motor vehicles queuing (i.e. drive-through facility) and landscaping
requirements. Parking and loading regulations include parking and loading
space dimensions, minimum required and maximum permitted number of
parking spaces, and design-oriented regulations that apply to all uses in all
zones.
6.
Turn to Part 3 to find definitions.
Throughout the By-law, you will find certain words are italicized. These are
terms which have a definition in the By-law. The definitions are found in Part
3 of the By-law. Reference to the definitions section should be made to
ensure a clear understanding of the implications of any italicized term used in
the By-law.
If you have any questions about the content or how to interpret this By-law, or to
obtain any content of this By-law in an alternate format, please do not hesitate to
contact the City for more information. Staff in the Planning Services department is
available Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., to assist with interpreting
applicable policy and regulations.

located within the municipality or within any defined area or areas or upon
land abutting on any defined highway or part of a highway, and the minimum
frontage and depth of the parcel of land and the proportion of the area thereof
that any building or structure may occupy (includes the authority to regulate
the minimum area of the parcel of land mentioned therein and to regulate the
minimum and maximum density and the minimum and maximum height of
development in the municipality or in the area or areas defined in the by-law);

amended, applies,
(a) to prevent the use of any land, building or structure for any purpose prohibited

purpose on the day of the passing of the by-law, so long as it continues to be
used for that purpose; or
(b) to prevent the erection or use for a purpose prohibited by the by-law of any
building or structure for which a permit has been issued under subsection 8 (1)
of the Building Code Act, 1992, prior to the day of the passing of the by-law, so
long as the building or structure when erected is used and continues to be used
for the purpose for which it was erected and provided the permit has not been
revoked under subsection 8 (10) of that Act.
Notwithstanding, the by-law may be amended so as to permit the extension or
enlargement of any land, building or structure used for any purpose prohibited by
the by-law if such land, building or structure continues to be used in the same manner
and for the same purpose as it was used on the day such by-law was passed.
Land within any area or areas or abutting on any highway or part of a highway has
been defined by the use of Zoning Maps in attachment to the by-law and the
information shown on such maps shall form part of the by-law to the same extent as
if included therein.

amendments thereto, are hereby repealed insofar as they affect the lands covered
by this By-law.

This By-law shall be administered by the City Planner or delegate, or other such
Zoning Administrator as may be appointed by Council. A certified true copy is on

PART 1
City of Clarence-Rockland Zoning By-law 2016-10
Page 2
Clarence-Rockland or any other regulation of the United Counties of

may otherwise affect the use of land, buildings, or structures.
b)
References to "the Zoning By-law" or "By-law No. 2006-3" in other City
By-laws or documents shall be deemed to refer to this By-law where this
By-law applies.

Regulation 350/06) and the permitting procedures of the applicable Conservation
Authority (Ontario Regulation 170/06).
1.6 Penalties
The following penalties apply:
a)
Every person who contravenes any of the provisions of this by-law and, if
the person is a corporation, every director or officer of the corporation

law, the court in which the conviction has been entered, and any court of
competent jurisdiction thereafter, may make an order prohibiting the
continuation or repetition of the offence by the person convicted.
d)
Every such penalty described above is subject to the provisions of Section
PART 1
City of Clarence-Rockland Zoning By-law 2016-10
Page 3
67 of the Planning Act, 1990, as amended, and will change from time to
time in accordance with the said Act.

liable to a fine as provided for in the Provincial Offences Act,
R.S.O. 1990, Chap. P.33, as amended.
1.7 Severability
A decision of a court of competent jurisdiction that one or more of the
provisions of this By-law or any portion of the Zoning Maps to this By-law are
invalid in whole or in part does not affect the validity, effectiveness, or
enforceability of the other provisions or parts of the provisions of this By-law.
1.8 Transition Matters
Notwithstanding Sections 1.2 and 1.4 of this By-law, a building permit may be
issued in accordance with Section 1.8 of this By-law for the following
scenarios.
For the purposes of determining zoning compliance for matters covered by
Section 1.8 of this By-law, the provisions of Zoning By-law No. 2006-3, as
amended, as it read on the effective date of this By-law shall apply.
1.8.1 Building Permit Applications
Nothing in this By-law shall prevent the erection of a building or structure for
which an application for a building permit was filed on or prior to the effective
date of this By-law provided the building permit application satisfies the
following requirements:
a)
The building permit application complies with the provisions of Zoning By-
law No. 2006-3, as amended, as it read on the effective date of this
Bylaw.
b)
All information is provided to allow for a zoning review to be undertaken;
and,
c)
All planning approvals have been obtained.
1.8.2 Applications and Plans
In addition to the requirements of any Building By-law, every application for a
building permit shall be accompanied by a plan, in duplicate, drawn to scale
and showing the following:
PART 1
City of Clarence-Rockland Zoning By-law 2016-10
Page 4
a)
The true dimensions of the lot to be built upon or otherwise used;
b)
The proposed location, height and dimensions of any building, structure
or use proposed for such lot, including any water supply and sewage
disposal facilities;
c)
The proposed locations and dimensions of yards, landscaping, parking
areas and loading spaces required by this By-law;
d)
The location of all existing buildings or structures on the lot; and,
e)
A statement signed by the owner, disclosing the exact use proposed for
each building, structure or use and giving all information necessary to
determine if such proposed or existing building, structure or use
conforms to the requirements of this By-law.
1.8.3 Recently Approved Planning Applications
a)
The requirements of this By-law do not apply on a lot where a minor
variance to Zoning By-law 2006-3, as amended, was authorized by the
Committee of Adjustment of the City or the Ontario Municipal Board on or
before the effective date of this By-law and a building permit for the
applicable project has not yet been issued.
b)
The requirements of this By-law do not apply to a lot where a Site Plan
Approval has been granted by the City on or before the effective date of
this By-law and a building permit for the applicable project has not yet
been issued.
c)
The requirements of this By-law do not apply to a lot where a provisional
consent has been given by the Committee of Adjustment of the City or
the Ontario Municipal Board on or before the effective date of this By-law
and a building permit for the applicable project has not yet been issued,
the lot has not yet been registered at the Land Registry Office, or the
applicable easement or agreement has not yet been registered on title.
d)
For clarity, where a minor variance to Zoning By-law No. 2006-3, as
amended, was authorized by the Committee of Adjustment of the City or
the Ontario Municipal Board on or before the effective date of this By-law
as a requisite condition for a Site Plan Approval, Section 1.8.3(b) shall
apply to give affect to the applicable Site Plan Approval.
PART 1
City of Clarence-Rockland Zoning By-law 2016-10
Page 5
In the scenarios described above, the rules and regulations of Zoning By-law No.
2006-3 shall apply when evaluating building permit applications. These clauses
provide direction to Building Services that a building permit may be issued for an
application received by the City fitting any of these scenarios.
Planning applications in process shall be reviewed under the zoning rules in force.
This means for some time an application will need to conform to both Zoning By-
law No. 2006-3, as amended, and the new Zoning By-law. Applicants will need to
comply with both sets of zoning regulations or seek relief or amendments to one
- or possibly both - By-laws.
If you have questions about the applicability of these clauses to your
development or building project, contact your file's planner in the Infrastructure
and Planning Services Department.
1.8.4 Cessation of Section 1.8 Relief
a)
The relief provided by Section 1.8 of this By-law shall not continue
beyond the issuance of the permit, approval, or agreement upon which
the exemption is founded, unless otherwise provided for in this By-law.
Once the permit, agreement, or approval has been granted in accordance
with Section 1.8, the provisions of Zoning By-law No. 2006-3, as
amended shall cease to be in effect.
b)
Notwithstanding subsection (a) above, the relief provided by Section 1.8
of this By-law ceases to be in effect on the date of the lapsing of the
applicable approval:
i.
For a minor variance, a maximum of two years from the date of
authorization;
ii.
For a Site Plan, a maximum of two years from the date of final
Approval (does not apply where an Agreement is registered); and,
iii.
For a provisional consent, a maximum of one year from the date of
giving.
1.9 Expropriation and Conveyance under the Planning Act
a)
For the purposes of determining compliance with the regulations of this
by-law, in the event of an expropriation or conveyance of a part of a lot
by or to the City of Clarence-Rockland or any other authority having the
power of expropriation, the lot or the building or the use, as the case
may be, will not be found to be in conflict with the provisions of this by-
PART 1
City of Clarence-Rockland Zoning By-law 2016-10
Page 6
law by reason only of that expropriation or conveyance.
b)
For the purposes of subsection a), expropriation means expropriation by
the City or any other authority having the power of expropriation, and
conveyance means the taking or receiving of land by the City of Clarence-
Rockland or any other authority having the power of expropriation, either
in satisfaction of a condition imposed on a consent to a severance by the
Committee of Adjustment or as a condition of the City of Clarence-
Rockland's site plan control approval process, or any other process
allowing the City of Clarence-Rockland or any other expropriation
authority having jurisdiction, the right to require such a conveyance.
1.10 Clarifications and Convenience

by another public authority shall include any amendments to or
successions thereof.

1.11 Technical Revisions to the Zoning By-law
Revisions may be made to this by-law without the need for a zoning by-law
amendment in the following cases:

typographical errors or revisions to format in a manner that does not
change the intent of a provision;

substances of a chemical, hazardous or toxic nature are used which could
contaminate potential flood waters; where flooding may compromise the
ability to deliver essential services, or where flooding may cause unacceptable
PART 4
City of Clarence-Rockland Zoning By-law 2016-10
Page 74
risk of property damage. Not all flood plains have been identified by the FP
overlay. The 1:100 year flood protection elevation along the Ottawa River is

Accessory uses
Wherever a legal non-conforming use exists, such as a residential use in
PART 4
City of Clarence-Rockland Zoning By-law 2016-10
Page 75
a flood plain, an accessory use to this non-conforming use (i.e. a
detached garage, a swimming pool or a shed) must also comply with
applicable Official Plan policies dealing with development within a Flood
Plain.
An Additional Residential Unit or a short-term rental is not permitted
