Where U applies

Polygons by the Town’s Official Plan community, with the OakvilleIQ neighbourhood page where one covers it.

Wards: Ward 3 (11), Ward 2 (6), Ward 1 (5), Ward 6 (3), Ward 5 (2), Ward 7 (1).

Special provisions 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.

In a growth area

Midtown (3), Bronte (1)

What the zone permits

The permitted uses, setbacks, lot coverage and heights for U are set out in Other zones (Part 14) 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.
