Who enacts zoning bylaws in Ontario?

  1. Always prepared by the buyer's lawyer

  2. Approved by the federal government

  3. Approved by the provincial government

  4. Restricted to regulating permitted uses

  5. Set out financial details of the transaction

  6. Enacted by the municipality

The correct answer is: Enacted by the municipality

In Ontario, zoning bylaws are enacted by the municipality. This means that local governments at the city or town level have the authority to create and enforce zoning bylaws that regulate the use of land within their jurisdiction. Zoning bylaws determine how a particular piece of land can be used, such as whether it can be used for residential, commercial, or industrial purposes, as well as specifying things like building heights, setbacks, and lot size requirements. It is important for real estate professionals to be familiar with these bylaws as they can have a significant impact on property values and development potential within a municipality. Options A, D, and E are incorrect as they do not relate to the enactment of zoning bylaws in Ontario. Option B is incorrect as zoning bylaws are not approved by the federal government but rather by the local municipality. Option C is incorrect as zoning bylaws are not approved by the provincial government either.
