Zoning Bylaw Changes Underway

The Zoning Bylaw Renewal Initiative is proposing a new Zoning Bylaw (Charter Bylaw 20001) and city-wide rezoning (Charter Bylaw 21001) at a City Council Public Hearing on October 16, 2023. 

These bylaws, if approved by City Council, will become effective on January 1, 2024. Learn more and find out how to get involved in the Public Hearing. 


Zoning tells you the type of development allowed on a property.

Rezoning is the process of changing a property’s zoning to allow for new development.

Some rezonings also require a plan amendment if the proposed zone does not align with an existing development plan

You can find the zoning of a property through the zoning map and find zoning rules in the Edmonton Zoning Bylaw.  See What is Zoning? to learn more.
