Bylaws & Zoning Regulations
We’re here to help: Learn about your local bylaws and zoning 
regulations, before you make your plans.  
In the Islands Trust Area, permitting may 
be required for new builds, renovations, 
tree removal or home-based business 
development. 
Contact Islands Trust to learn about the 
zoning bylaws that can affect your plans to 
use and develop your property. 
First Nations
The Islands Trust Area is within treaty and 
territorial lands and waters of many First 
Nation governments, which may have their 
own permitting requirements related to 
land use. Engagement with First Nations 
may be required. Islands Trust land use 
decision-making is moving towards greater 
protection of cultural heritage and sites, 
ancestral resting places, and culturally 
significant areas.
December 2023
Many of the island regulations 
reflect community values and 
are in place to protect the 
region’s unique environment 
and cultural heritage.
