What term is used for slight deviations from zoning bylaws in planning?

  1. Planning infraction.

  2. Minor variance.

  3. Zoning amendment.

  4. Bylaw variance.

The correct answer is: Minor variance.

In planning, slight deviations from zoning bylaws are typically referred to as 'Minor variances'. When a property owner wishes to slightly adjust a requirement imposed by the zoning bylaws, they can apply for a minor variance to seek permission for this deviation. This term is specifically used in the context of zoning regulations and allows for flexibility while ensuring that the overall intent of the zoning bylaws is maintained. The other options are not the correct terms for slight deviations from zoning bylaws: A. Planning infraction typically refers to violations of planning laws and regulations. C. Zoning amendment involves more significant changes to the zoning bylaws and usually require more formal processes. D. Bylaw variance is not a standard term used in zoning contexts, and the term 'minor variance' is more commonly employed to refer to these slight deviations from the zoning bylaws.
