(Last Updated April 10, 2026)
Welcome to the official page for the St. Andrews Zoning By-law Update! This project is focused on updating and modernizing the zoning by-law to better reflect current provincial legislation, the Red River Planning District (RRPD) Development Plan, and the evolving needs of our community. The updated by-law will be easier to use, help guide sustainable growth, protect sensitive environments, and ensure St. Andrews remains a vibrant and liveable place for all residents.
Upcoming Open Houses - April 2026:
We need your feedback! Residents are invited to join us at our upcoming Open Houses in South St. Andrews and Petersfield.
If you are unable to attend the open house, please find the presentation boards, draft zoning by-law and link to an online survey for your feedback below.

Why Update the Zoning By-law?
The current Zoning By-law was adopted in 2002. Since then, our community has experienced demographic shifts, new development trends, and changes in provincial and district planning policies. Updating the by-law will:
- Align local regulations with The Planning Act and Provincial Land Use Policies.
- Update zoning requirements based on the RRPD Development Plan and relevant secondary plans.
- Encourage a wider range of housing types and affordability.
- Support economic development and employment opportunities.
- Enhance environmental protection and resilience.
- Streamline development processes and reduce administrative barriers.
