Development Application Support Materials

Find the section in the Zoning Bylaw that outlines the specific use and parcel requirements for your zone.

a.  For example, s.11.1: R1 Zone (Single Detached and Duplex Residential)

 Locate the 'minimum parcel requirements' table (found under 'zone specific regulations') to determine required setbacks.

2. Draw all required info on your site plan, making sure to include the following elements

• north arrow and scale
• property lines as per the most recent legal survey 
• the location and labeling of all abutting streets, lanes, highways, sidewalks, water bodies, and vegetation any easements that might exist
• all existing and proposed buildings and structures on the lot (this includes decks, porches, steps, fences and similar), labelled with their: 
  • Use
  • Dimensions
• proposed building-to-building, and building-to-property line setbacks 
• location and size of parking areas / loading facilities

Goal: To direct runoff to main road (and specify in the plan how will this be accomplished on site) 

It is recommended for pads to be packed at a slightly higher grade than the road (but at even grade with adjacent properties when sensible) and on a diagonal, slope the lot gradually to be at an even grade with the main road.

Some examples of stormwater management infrastructure include the following: 

Building Infrastructure

• Gutters

• Snow dams/avalanche guards
• Eavestrough
   

Ground Infrastructure

• Ditching
• Drain Tiles
• Culverts
• French Drains
• Drainage Swale

Note: Snow dams are required on all new builds 

Goal: To safely direct traffic away from the section of the road that you propose to close 

1. Find a map of or draw the section of the road(s) that you propose to close and its adjacent properties and landmarks
   1. Be sure to include: 
      • a north arrow
      • property lines as per the most recent legal survey 
      • labelling of streets and landmarks
   2. Helpful map websites include:
      • GeoYukon
      • CLSS
      • Map on ArcGIS

2. Indicate how you propose to safely close the road with road closure infrastructure. Examples of these include: 
   1. Fence
   2. Emergency Lane
   3. Parking Lane
   4. Signage
   5. Barricade
