Zoning Bylaw

About the Zoning Bylaw

Zoning Bylaw 0320 regulates how land and buildings can be used and developed throughout West Kelowna to support safe, orderly, and sustainable growth. This Includes:
  • Defined permitted land uses, including where residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural, and other activities can occur.
  • Regulation of development density, height, and setback requirements.
  • Five urban and neighbourhood centre zones, with corresponding regulations.
  • Key regulations and interpretations based on feedback from staff, Council and the development community.
  • Integration of provincial housing amendments related to Bills 26, 44 and 47.
  • Maps.
  • Parking regulations to address mixed uses, densities and built forms.
  • A density bonusing program consistent with Official Community Plan direction to support the supply of priority housing.

Zoning Bylaw No. 0265 was West Kelowna’s previous bylaw before the adoption of Zoning Bylaw 0320. Bylaw No.0265 was repealed and replaced by Zoning Bylaw No. 0320 on April 22, 2025. To review the previous Zoning Bylaw, it can be found here: Previous Zoning Bylaw 0265
