Section 1:
Introduction and Interpretation
1.1
Title
This Bylaw shall be known as "The City of Prince Albert Zoning Bylaw" and may
be cited as the "Zoning Bylaw".
1.2
Purpose
The purpose of the Zoning Bylaw is to regulate development within the City of
Prince Albert in accordance with The Planning and Development Act, 2007, The
Cities Act, and The City of Prince Albert Official Community Plan (OCP). The
intention is to provide development regulations that align with the goals and
policies set out in the OCP, in order to manage the general amenity, health, safety
and welfare of the citizens of Prince Albert.
1.3
Interpretation
The Zoning Bylaw shall be interpreted and applied by the Development Officer in
conjunction with the Planning and Development Act, 2007, The Cities Act, OCP,
and any other relevant legislation.
For the purposes of the Zoning Bylaw, the definitions contained in the Glossary,
and interpretations given by the Development Officer shall apply. Words in the
present tense include the future tense; words in the singular include the plural; and
words in the plural include the singular. The expression "shall" is to be construed
as imperative, and the expression "may" as permissive. The words "used" and
"occupied" shall also mean "intended or arranged and designed to be used or
occupied". Words in the masculine gender shall include the feminine gender or any
other gender identity, as required.
1.4
Scope
The regulations contained in this Bylaw shall apply to all development and land
located within the corporate limits of the City of Prince Albert. All approved
development shall conform to the provisions of this Bylaw, OCP and The Planning
and Development Act, 2007.
1.5
Severability
A declaration by a court of competent jurisdiction that a section, clause or provision
of this Bylaw, including anything shown on the Zoning Map is invalid, shall not
affect the validity of this Bylaw or any part of this Bylaw other than the section,

Introduction and Interpretation
Bylaw No. 1 of 2019

dictates.

Bylaw No. 1 of 2019
Section 2:
Zoning Districts and Zoning Map
2.1
Establishment of Zoning and Overlay Districts
For the purpose of this Bylaw, all land located within the corporate limits of the City
of Prince Albert shall be divided into zoning districts, and may also be subject to
additional overlay district regulations. The boundaries of the zoning and overlay
districts shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.3 of this Bylaw. The zoning
districts shall be shown on the Zoning Map, which forms a part of this Bylaw, and
attached hereto and titled Appendix B. The overlay districts shall also be shown
on a map(s), which forms a part of this Bylaw, attached hereto and titled Appendix
C and D.
2.2
Overlay Districts
Overlay districts are established when a particular geographic area requires
additional, specific regulations. Where an overlay district is established, all
development shall comply with both the zoning district and overlay district
regulations contained therein. If there is conflict between the regulations contained
in a zoning district and an overlay district, the regulations contained in the overlay
district shall prevail.
2.3
Boundaries of Zoning and Overlay Districts
1.
The boundaries of the zoning districts shall be delineated as follows:
a)
Streets, Lanes and Rights-of-Way
All streets, lanes and rights-of-way, shall be deemed to be in the
same zoning district as the property immediately abutting such
streets, lanes and rights-of-way. If the land abutting each side of a
street, lane or right-of-way is located in a different zoning district, the
center line of such street, lane or right-of-way shall be deemed to be
the zoning district boundary.
b)
Lot Lines
Where zoning district boundaries are not shown to be streets, lanes
or rights-of-way, and where the zoning district boundary appears to
correspond with a lot line, the lot line shall be considered the zoning
district boundary. In a case where the zoning district boundary is
provided by a dimension, as part of a specific bylaw amendment, the
dimension shall establish the boundary of the zoning district.
Zoning Districts and Zoning Map
Bylaw No. 1 of 2019
c)
Riverbank and Other Geographical Features
Where any zoning district abuts the riverbank or any similar
geographical feature that may divide the land, such zoning district
shall either:
i)
be deemed to extend into the river and apply to any land
created by changing river levels, landfill operations or by any
other means; or
ii)
be delineated pursuant to Section 2.3.1(a) or (b).
2.
Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of a zoning district,
the Development Officer shall determine the final location of the boundaries.
3.
Overlay district boundaries may or may not follow the same boundaries of
zoning districts, and an overlay district may encompass different or multiple
zoning districts. Where uncertainty exists with respect to the boundaries of
an overlay district, the Development Officer shall determine the final location
of the boundaries.
2.4
Developments with More than One Zoning District
Where a development site is comprised of more than one zoning district, it will be
at the discretion of the Development Officer to determine whether or not rezoning
is required, or whether a zoning designation boundary needs to be adjusted in
accordance with Section 2.3 of this Bylaw.
