Now therefore the Council of the Municipality of North Grenville enacts as follows:

Section 3 - Interpretation and Establishment of Zones
3.1
Text and Figure Interpretation
Words, phrases and terms which are undefined in this By-Law shall be given their usual
and customary meaning, except where in the opinion of the Zoning Administrator, the
context clearly indicates a different meaning. For the purpose of interpreting this By-
Law, the following shall apply:
a) The word "shall" mean mandatory and without discretion.
b) The word "may" is permissive.
c) The words "used" and "occupied" shall include the words "intended or arranged"
and "designed to be used or occupied".
d) Words used in the present tense shall include the future and words used in the
singular number shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular
unless the context clearly indicates the contrary.
e) A "building" or "structure" includes any part thereof.
f) The provision of this By-Law shall be held to be the minimum requirements
except where the word maximum is used, in which case the maximum
requirements shall apply.
g) Unless the context clearly indicated the contrary, where a zoning provision
involves two or more items, conditions, provisions, or events which are
connected by the conjunctions "and" or "or", the conjunction shall be interpreted
as follows:
i.
the word "and" indicates that all of the connected items, conditions,
provisions or events shall apply in any combination; and,
ii.
the word "or" indicates that the connected items, conditions, provisions, or
events may apply singly or in combination.
h) For the purpose of this By-Law, the definitions and interpretations given herein
shall govern. For terms not defined the standard approach is to reference the
Oxford English Dictionary.
i) For the purpose of a numeric calculation that results in a fraction, the calculated
figure shall be rounded to the nearest whole number (i.e., 5.2 parking spaces
Municipality of North Grenville
Comprehensive Zoning By-Law No 50-12

shall require the provision of 5 parking spaces; 5.5 parking spaces shall require
the provision of 6 parking spaces).

b) Whenever in this By-Law the term "Zone" is used, preceded or followed by any
symbol, as the case requires, such combination shall refer to any area delineated
on the zoning schedule and designated therein by said symbol.

Zoning Schedules
The attached zoning schedules are detailed maps for portions of the Municipality, and
form part of this By-Law.

zoning schedules, the following provisions shall apply:
a) Where a zone boundary is shown following a street, lane, railway right-of-way,
electric transmission line, right-of-way or watercourse, then the centre line of the

watercourse is the zone boundary.
b) Where a zone boundary is indicated as approximately following lot lines shown
on a registered plan of subdivision or lot lines of the original municipal survey
fabric, the boundary shall follow such lot lines.

d) Where a zone boundary is indicated as following a shoreline, the boundary shall
follow such shoreline and, in the event that the shoreline changes, the boundary
shall be taken as having moved with the shoreline.

clauses a), b), c) and d) above, then the boundary shall be determined by the
scale shown on the schedule measured from the centre of the zone line.
f) Where the zone boundary has been established through a site-specific zoning
By-Law amendment, the boundary of said zone shall be the dimensions
contained in the amending By-Law.
g) Wherever it occurs, the municipal limit is the boundary of the zone adjacent to it.
h) Where the boundary of any zone is uncertain to define the limit of an
Environmental Protection area, the boundary shall be determined by the Zoning
Administrator in accordance with Ministry of Natural Resources mapping.
3.5
More Than One Zone on a Lot
Where a lot has two or more of its parts classified in different zones, then the provisions
for each zone shall apply to each part as if said part was a separate lot.
Notwithstanding this regulation, the lot area requirement for non-residential uses in the

Protection or Environmental Protection.
3.6
Flooding & Erosion Protection (FEP) Zone Interpretation
The boundary of the Flooding & Erosion Protection (FEP) zone within the Rideau Valley
Watershed has been derived from information provided by the Rideau Valley
Conservation Authority (RVCA), based on their flood plain maps. The RVCA flood plain
maps are acknowledged as being more accurate than the schedules attached to and
forming part of this By-Law. In cases where the boundary of the FEP zone is in
question, reference should be made to the RVCA flood plain mapping. Any variation
from the FEP zone boundary on the attached schedules consistent with the RVCA flood
plain mapping will not require an amendment to this By-Law. Any variations from the
FEP zone boundary on the attached schedules which is not consistent with the RVCA
flood plain mapping will require an amendment to this By-Law.

classification (e.g., R1-2). Lands so zoned shall be subject to all of the provisions of the

exception provisions of the zone.
3.8
Special Use Provisions
Where any of the zone symbols are shown on the zoning schedules followed by a dash
and a letter (e.g., R1-a) then special provisions and/or uses to the normal zone
provisions apply to such lands. 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 restrictions of the zone, except as otherwise provided
by the special provisions.
3.9
Holding Zone Provisions
Any parcel or area of land in any zone on Schedule A of this By-Law may be further
classified as a holding zone with the addition of the suffix "h". The intent is to signify
Council's approval in principle to future development of the land for the purposes
indicated by the symbol. The holding classification added to a given zone shall restrict
development of the land until such time as the demand for the development of the land
is sufficient to warrant immediate development.
Where a holding zone applies, no lands shall be used and no buildings or structures
shall be erected or used for any purpose other than uses existing on the date of passing
of this By-Law. Any change from the holding status shall require an amendment to this
By-Law.

erection of any buildings or structures thereon shall be undertaken in accordance with
the provisions of the underlying zoning category.
3.10 Temporary Zoning Provisions
a) Where the zone symbol applied to certain lands is followed by the letter "t" (for
example, R1-t), then special provisions shall apply to certain permitted use(s) for
a specified period of time, following which time the special provisions shall cease.

amends the zoning schedule by adding the letter "t" to the zone symbol on the
