Have a question or a comment about the draft new Zoning By-law? Let us know!

The City of Brantford’s New Zoning By-law Project will establish a new Zoning By-law for the City of Brantford that is in conformity with the City’s Official Plan – Envisioning Our City: 2051, Provincial policies and emerging best practices. 

The new Zoning By-law draft is available for review

A Draft of the new City of Brantford Zoning By-law (November 2023) is now available for review. When reviewing the draft Zoning By-law document and mapping, a good place to start would be the ‘User Guide’ Section 1:

The new Zoning By-law will regulate all lands within the City of Brantford, and replace current Zoning By-laws 160-90 (Brantford) and 60-16 (former County of Brant lands added to the City in 2017). It will provide zoning direction in a clear, concise and easy to read document. 

We want to hear from you!

    Hello, 

    Thanks for the time you have taken to review the documents and prepare feedback, great question!

    Under Section 6.8.1 ‘Additional Provisions’ for the Intensification Corridor Zone (IC) you will find reference to “-PP” (Pedestrian Prominent Areas). This section of the Draft Zoning By-law highlights that mixed use buildings or non-residential buildings in the Intensification Corridor Zone with a “-PP” after the zone will require ground floor commercial uses and residential uses. 

    The Intensification Corridors are intended to provide for a mix of intensified uses and built form including retail, commercial, and residential buildings. As the City grows, these areas are intended to become intensified, vibrant, mixed use areas that are pedestrian and transit oriented. 

    Thank you again for your time,
