Where RO2 applies

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

Wards: Ward 5 (13).


Exceptions, holding and other markers

The markers the layer records on RO2 polygons. Their terms are written only in the by-law; each line says where.

Exception (13 polygons)
212 (×4), 141 (×2), 252 (×2), 243, 257, 262, 487, 488Part 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.

What the zone permits

The permitted uses and regulations for RO2 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.
