A minor variance is a change or permission from the zoning regulations of the Municipality's Zoning By-law. The minor variance process allows a property owner the opportunity to seek permission or relief from a specific zoning regulation of the Municipality's Zoning By-law by applying to the Committee of Adjustment.
Other processes include the following:
- Extensions, enlargements or variations of existing legal non-conforming uses under the Zoning By-law; and,
- Determine whether a particular use conforms with the provisions of the Zoning By-law where the uses of land, buildings or structures permitted in the by-law are defined in general terms.
