City of Quesnel Zoning Bylaw
15 zone definitions. 8 with development rules (height, FAR, setbacks).
The City of Quesnel's zoning regulations establish 15 zone designations across agricultural, commercial, and residential categories, with the primary bylaw reference appearing to be derived from individual zone codes rather than a single numbered bylaw. Residential zones comprise 12 of the 15 designations, ranging from single-family (R-1, RS-1, RS-2) to multi-unit options (RM-1 through RM-4), with maximum heights between 7.5 and 11.0 metres and front setbacks ranging from 4.5 to 7.5 metres. The RS-1 Urban Residential and CR-1 Country Residential zones permit the greatest height at 11.0 metres, while the R-1 Residential One zone allows the smallest front setback at 4.5 metres with a 0.5 floor area ratio. Secondary suite permissions are not specified in the available zone data. Located in the Cariboo region of central British Columbia, Quesnel is approximately 110 kilometres north of Williams Lake and 720 kilometres north of Vancouver.
