Purpose of the Zoning Bylaw?
This bylaw provides the regulatory framework for orderly economic, social and environmentally responsible development within the Village of Haines Junction by:
- Implementing the goals and objectives of the Official Community Plan
- Establishing land use zones and associated regulations to control the use, location, type and level of development allowed to occur on a parcel of land within the Village of Haines Junction; and
- Setting out rules and procedures, information requirements, and processes to be followed to permit the consistent review and timely decision-making on an application to undertake a development, rezone a parcel, or file a development appeal.
