Lake Country property FAQ
What zone is my Lake Country property?
Enter your address above. The tool reads the zone code from the Central Okanagan regional GIS that carries Lake Country's zoning layer — codes like R1, RM5, or C1 per the District's zoning bylaw.
How many units can I build on a Lake Country lot?
Most single-family lots qualify for a minimum of 3 units under BC's Bill 44 small-scale multi-unit housing rules: 3 on a lot up to 3,014 sqft (280 m²) and 4 above that, subject to servicing. Parcels larger than 4,050 m² are exempt. Enter the address and the tool shows the floor for that lot.
Is my Lake Country property in the ALR?
Enter the address and the tool checks the parcel against the Agricultural Land Reserve boundary — the defining question on the valley floor, where orchards and vineyards fill the land between Wood Lake and Okanagan Lake.
Is the zoning data current?
Zoning comes from the Central Okanagan regional GIS copy of Lake Country's layer, which can trail the District's latest amendments. Confirm with District of Lake Country planning staff before relying on it — the tool is a screening layer, not legal advice.
