Land Use Bylaw text amendment applications

Beaumont’s land is divided into different land use districts, each with its own land use regulations as outlined in the Land Use Bylaw. These regulations can be modified through a text amendment to the bylaw.

Text amendments can be initiated by the City or requested by an applicant. Before changes are made, the City collects feedback and concerns from the community. Public hearings are held to discuss proposed changes.
