Description: The zoning dataset defines the polygonal areas that comprise all zones within the District of Saanich. A zone regulates the use of land and the location, use, size and shape of buildings and structures erected thereon (Zoning Bylaw 2003 (#8200)). For example a zone can regulate minimum lot area and/or frontage length for building a house or other building, maximum building size, or minimum setbacks from a lot boundary for building a structure.
