M12 zone polygons (By-law 05-200)The outline is the City of Hamilton boundary.

The 1 smallest polygons are too small to see at this scale and are not drawn; every polygon is counted.


Where M12 applies

Polygons and hectares by the City of Hamilton’s neighbourhood outlines, each polygon placed by a point inside it.

Wards: Ward 13 (5), Ward 9 (2), Ward 12 (1), Ward 15 (1).


Exceptions, holding and other markers

The markers the layer records on M12 polygons. Their terms are written only in the by-law; each line says where.

Special exception (5 polygons)

Drawn over another polygon
2 zone polygons sit inside another polygon on the layer (the map draws one zone over another without cutting a hole). Their hectares are counted here and in the other zone; the by-law map decides which applies.

What the zone permits

The permitted uses and regulations for M12 are set out in Section 9.12, Zoning By-law 05-200. HamiltonIQ does not paraphrase them: an exception, a holding provision or a later amendment can change what applies to one lot. The City of Hamilton’s Zoning Verification Report Application is the City of Hamilton’s own answer for a property. The interactive zoning map shows the zone on a single lot.
