3.1.5 Where the Zone symbol on certain lands as shown on Schedule "A" is followed by a dash
and a number, (for example MR-1), then special provisions apply to such lands and such
special provisions will be found by reference to that section of the By-Law which deals with
that particular zone. Lands designated in this manner shall be subject to all the restrictions of
the zone except as otherwise provided by the special provisions.
3.1.6 Where the Zone symbol is followed by a holding symbol denoted (H), no person shall use
such lands except for such purpose permitted in the respective zone in the By-Law, and,
further, no person shall erect, enlarge, extend or reconstruct any new or existing building or

Where the Zone symbol is followed by a symbol denoted (T), a temporary Zoning By-Law, permitted
