What is a Conditional Use?
A Conditional Use is a use of land or building that may be allowed under a Zoning By-law. Certain uses are deemed Conditional based on their unique characteristics that cannot properly be classified in any particular zone or zones without consideration of the impact of those uses upon neighbouring properties.
How do I know if I need a Conditional Use?
The R.M. of Taché Zoning By-law contains a Principal Use Table and Accessory Use Table that identifies Permitted ("P") and Conditional ("C") and Not Permitted ("-") with a specific zone. Click on the tables below.
