Preamble
PREAMBLE
Introduction
These pages explain the purpose of this Zoning By-law and how it should be used. These pages
do not form part of the Zoning By-law passed by Council and are intended only to make the Zoning
By-law more understandable and easier to reference.
Purpose of This Zoning By-law
The purpose of this Zoning By-law is to implement the policies of the Town of Milton Official Plan.
The Official Plan contains general policies that affect the use of land throughout the municipality.
These policies specify where certain land uses are permitted and, in some instances, specify what
regulations should apply to the development of certain lands.
The Official Plan is a general document that is not intended to regulate every aspect of the built-
form on a private lot. In the Province of Ontario, this is the role of the Zoning By-law. Once an
Official Plan is in effect, any Zoning By-law passed by Council must conform to the Official Plan.
For example, if the Official Plan stated that lands in the vicinity of a significant natural feature are
to remain in their natural state, the Zoning By-law would prohibit the erection of buildings or
structures on those lands.
The statutory authority to zone land is granted by the Ontario Planning Act. The Planning Act
specifies what a By-law can regulate. A Zoning By-law can:
-
prohibit the use of land or buildings for any use that is not specifically permitted by the By-
law;
-
prohibit the erection or siting of buildings and structures on a lot except in locations permitted
by the By-law;
-
regulate the type of construction and the height, bulk, location, size, floor area, spacing, and
use of buildings or structures;
-
regulate the minimum frontage and depth of a parcel of land;
-
regulate the proportion of a lot that any building or structure may occupy;
-
regulate the minimum elevation of doors, windows or other openings in buildings or
structures;
Town of Milton Comprehensive Zoning By-law 144-2003 - March 2026 Consolidation
Preamble
-
require parking and loading facilities be provided and maintained for a purpose permitted by
the By-law; and,
-
prohibit the use of lands and the erection of buildings or structures on land that is:
-
subject to flooding;
-
the site of steep slopes;
-
rocky, low-lying, marshy or unstable;
-
contaminated;
-
a sensitive groundwater recharge area or head water area;
-
the location of a sensitive aquifer;
-
a significant wildlife habitat area, wetland, woodland, ravine, valley or area of natural
and scientific interest;
-
a significant corridor or shoreline of a lake, river or stream; or,
-
the site of a significant archaeological resource.
How to Use This By-law
In order to reference this By-law most easily, a property owner should follow each of the steps listed
below to determine what permissions apply to their particular property.
1. Locate the Property on a Map
Maps in a Zoning By-law are called 'Schedules'. The first step to using this By-law is to refer to
the zone schedules that are contained at the back of the By-law to determine in which zone
category your property is located. The zone category will be indicated on the schedules by a
colour and in some case a symbol or abbreviation. For example, you may see a light shade of
yellow colour with a symbol such as "RLD" beside your property. This would indicate that your
property is within the 'Residential Low Density" Zone. The zone symbols or abbreviations are
explained on the first page of Section 2 of the By-law.
Section 2 also provides assistance to help you identify the zone boundaries on the Schedules.
For example, if your property appears close to a zone boundary and you are not sure how to
determine exactly where that boundary is located, refer to Section 2.4 of the By-law.
2. By-law Amendments
A Zoning By-law is not a static document; it is amended over time as demands and policies
governing land use change. Before proceeding any further, you should verify that your property
is not the subject of an earlier Zoning By-law amendment. These amendments are listed in
each Zone Section of this By-law. More recent amendments may not be included in the version
of the By-law you are using. Staff in the Town's Planning Department will be able to assist you
to confirm if your property has been subject to a more recent By-law amendment.
Town of Milton Comprehensive Zoning By-law 144-2003 - March 2026 Consolidation
Preamble
3. Zone Provisions
The next step to using this By-law is to determine what uses are permitted on your property.
Sections 6 to 11 of the By-law identify the permitted uses and zone standards for each zone in
the municipality.
The definitions in Section 3 can assist you if you are not sure of the nature of a permitted use or
how it has been defined for the purposes of this By-law. Words that are defined in Section 3
are italicized throughout the By-law. If a word is not italicized, it is not specifically defined. Uses
which are not identified as permitted uses within a particular zone are not permitted in that zone.
You have now identified the zone in which your property is located and have identified what
uses are permitted on your property. The next step is to determine what standards may apply
to the uses on your property. Sections 6 to 11 of the By-law also identify the zone standards for
each of the zone categories in the municipality including standards for minimum lot area,
minimum frontage requirements, minimum yard requirements, maximum lot coverage for
buildings, maximum permitted height of buildings and in some cases, the minimum required
landscaped open space on the lot.
4. General Provisions
Now that you are aware of the uses permitted on your property and the specific zone standards
that apply to those uses, reference should be made to Section 4 of this By-law. Section 4
contains a more generic set of standards know as 'General Provisions' that apply to all properties
in all zones throughout the municipality. For example, the general provisions contain standards
that regulate the location of accessory structures on a lot, height exceptions, and non-
conforming/non-complying uses that apply to all properties regardless of where in the
municipality a property is located.
5. Parking and Loading
There is one final section of the By-law that should be consulted when determining what
permissions apply to your specific property. Section 5 provides the parking and loading
requirements for all uses permitted in the municipality. If you are considering changing the use
of your property or adding a new use to your property, you should review Section 5 to ensure
that you are aware of the parking requirements for the proposed use.
6. Explanatory Notes
A series of drawings are provided in the back of this document to assist the reader in interpreting
the Zoning By-law provisions. These drawings are for illustration purposes only and do not form
part of the actual By-law.
Town of Milton Comprehensive Zoning By-law 144-2003 - March 2026 Consolidation
Preamble
What are Legal Non-Conforming and Legal Non-Complying For The Purposes Of This By-law?
A legal non-conforming use is a use of land and/or building that legally existed on the date By-law
144-2003 comes into effect under the Planning Act. To be legal, the use must have been permitted
on the lands in the zoning by-law that was in effect before By-law 144-2003 came into effect.
Alternatively, if the use has existed on the lands for a considerable number of years, the use may
be legal non-conforming if it was legally established before the first By-law for the Town of Milton
or the By-law for the original Township was passed.
A legal non-complying building or structure is a building or structure that was legally erected in a
location it was in when By-law 144-2003 comes into effect under the Planning Act. To be legal, the
location of the building or structure must have been authorized on the lands in the zoning by-law
that was in effect before By-law 144-2003 come into effect. Alternatively, if the building or structure
existed on the lands for a considerable number of years, the building or structure may be legal if it
was legally erected before the first by-law for the Town of Milton or the by-law for the original
Township was passed.
Description of By-law Components
This By-law contains fourteen sections, which together, provide the land uses and standards
applicable to all lands within the municipality. These sections are as follows:
Section 1
Interpretation and Administration
Section 2
Establishment of Zones
Section 3
Definitions
Section 4
General Provisions
Section 5
Parking and Loading
Section 6
Residential Zone Provisions
Section 7
Commercial Zone Provisions

Section 13
Special Provisions, Holding Provisions, Temporary Use Zones & Interim Control
Zones.
Section 14
Enactment
The purpose of each of these sections is described below.
Section 1 - Interpretation and Administration
This section of the By-law specifies:
-
what lands are covered by the By-law;
Town of Milton Comprehensive Zoning By-law 144-2003 - March 2026 Consolidation
Preamble
-
that every parcel of land in the area covered by the By-law is to conform and comply with
the By-law; and,
-
what penalties can be levied against a person or a corporation if they contravene any
provision in the By-law.
Section 2 - Establishment Of Zones
This section establishes the Zones that apply to the lands covered by the By-law. This section also
describes how to determine the location of the Zone boundaries on the schedules.
Section 3 - Definitions
It is necessary to define words in a Zoning By-law because it is a legal document. A By-law must
be drafted so that it can be enforced in a court of law. These definitions will help provide clarity in
the By-law and ensure that the By-law and it's intent are applied consistently.
Section 4 - General Provisions
This section contains a number of regulations that apply to certain types of uses, buildings or
structures regardless of where in the municipality or in what zone they are located. For example,
this section contains provisions dealing with the construction of docks in any zone, or provisions to
regulate the operation of home industries.
Section 5 - Parking and Loading
Parking and loading facilities are required for almost all uses within the municipality. This section
provides the requirements for these facilities including such regulations as the number of spaces
required for residential and commercial uses, minimum driveway width, minimum parking space
size and the location of parking facilities on a lot.
Sections 6 to 11- Zone Provisions
Sections 6 to 11 identify the uses that are permitted in each Zone category. The effect of these
Zones is to only permit certain uses in various parts of the municipality. The only uses permitted
in a zone are those that are specified in the By-law. If a use is not specifically mentioned as a
permitted use in a Zone then it is not permitted. Similarly, if a use is defined in Section 3.0 of the
By-law but does not appear as a permitted use in any zone, then it is not a use permitted by the
By-law.
Sections 6 to 11 also contain a number of regulations that control the placement, bulk and height
of a building on a lot. This includes regulations such as minimum lot size, minimum frontage,
maximum building height or the maximum coverage of a building on a lot.
Finally, these sections contain a listing of property specific exceptions to the By-law that have been
granted by Council for individual or groups of properties. For example, the minimum front yard in
a Zone may be 7.5m. The required front yard may be reduced to a lesser number if deemed
appropriate and the mechanism to accomplish this reduction is by amending the By-law and
Town of Milton Comprehensive Zoning By-law 144-2003 - March 2026 Consolidation
Preamble
excepting the property from the general standard. Exceptions are denoted on the Zone Schedules
by the Zone symbol designating certain lands followed by a star and a number, for example RLD*1.
Section 12 - Future Development Zone
This section identifies lands which have no immediate development potential, however, which the
lands as indicated by this zone will ultimately be rezoned to permit some form of urban development
in the future once the required secondary plans and development plans among other matters have
been approved.
Section 13 - Special Provisions
This Section provides a consolidated list of properties that are subject to Special Provisions,
Holding Provisions, Temporary Use Zones and Interim Control By-laws.
Section 14- Enactment
This section contains the signatures of the Mayor and the Clerk who signed the By-law when it was
passed by Council in accordance with Section 34 of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990 c.P. 13.
