Mixed use zones (Part 8)
CBD · Central Business District
CBD is the Town of Oakville's Central Business District zone under Zoning By-law 2014-014. It applies to 65 zone polygons covering about 24 hectares, mostly in Old Oakville. 23 of them carry a special provision and 1 carry a holding symbol. The rules for the zone are in the by-law's Mixed use zones (Part 8).

Special provisions, holding symbols and growth areas
A special provision (sp) changes the zone’s rules for that site; a holding symbol (H) keeps development from proceeding until the Town lifts it. Both are set out in the by-law, which is the only place their terms are written.

What the zone permits
The permitted uses, setbacks, lot coverage and heights for CBD are set out in Mixed use zones (Part 8) of Zoning By-law 2014-014. OakvilleIQ does not paraphrase them: a site-specific special provision, a holding symbol or a later amendment can change what applies to one lot, and only the Town’s zoning certificate is binding.
