Where R2.3 applies

Polygons and hectares by the City of Burlington’s planning community outlines, each polygon placed by a point inside it.

Wards: Ward 6 (7), Ward 1 (1), Ward 3 (1).


Exceptions, holding and other markers

The markers the layer records on R2.3 polygons. Their terms are written only in the by-law; each line says where.

Exception (8 polygons)
299 (×2), 555 (×2), 115, 184, 282, 554Part 1, s. 1.5: a dash and a number after a zone designation (e.g. RH4-10) is an exception number; the special provisions are set out in Part 14, Exceptions to Zone Designations.
Drawn over another polygon
1 zone polygon sit inside another polygon on the layer (the map draws one zone over another without cutting a hole). Their hectares are counted here and in the other zone; the by-law map decides which applies.

What the zone permits

The permitted uses and regulations for R2.3 are set out in Part 2, Residential Zones, Zoning By-law 2020. BurlingtonIQ does not paraphrase them: an exception, a holding provision or a later amendment can change what applies to one lot. The City of Burlington’s Zoning Clearance Certificate is the City of Burlington’s own answer for a property. The interactive zoning map shows the zone on a single lot.
