Understanding Rocky View County Land Use & Zoning
Planning to build a custom home, add a large workshop, or create an equestrian setup on your new acreage? Before you buy, it’s crucial to understand the local regulations. The Rocky View County Land Use Bylaw outlines key rules that will affect your project, including:
- Zoning Districts: Confirming if your property is zoned as Agricultural, Country Residential, or another designation that matches your plans.
- Permitted & Discretionary Uses: Understanding what you can build by right versus what requires special approval from the county.
- Setback Requirements: Knowing how far your home, barn, or shop must be from property lines, roads, and environmental reserves.
- Development Permits: Learning about the application process and requirements for getting your building permits approved without delays.
Taking the time to review these guidelines is an essential step for a smooth and successful purchase. For complete details, we strongly recommend you view our complete Guide to Purchasing Property in Rocky View County here.
