Comprehensive Zoning By-law Project
The Township of Puslinch was subject to Zoning By-law 19/85, which was dated and had been subject to numerous site-specific amendments over the years.

The Final Draft of the Comprehensive Zoning By-law was passed as By-law 23/2018 at the April 18th Council Meeting. Please see the Notice of Passing for appeal information.
