S zone polygons (By-law 2020)The outline is the City of Burlington boundary.

The 4 smallest polygons are too small to see at this scale and are not drawn; every polygon is counted.


Where S applies

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

Wards: Ward 2 (5), Ward 1 (4), Ward 6 (2), Ward 3 (1), Ward 4 (1), Ward 5 (1).


Exceptions, holding and other markers

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

Exception (2 polygons)
60, 475Part 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 S are set out in Part 12, Development Zone / Utility Services Zone, 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.
