The shared municipal core now requires a direct current official rule source for every hard automated answer. Current direct FenceRules sources were reverified, stale duplicate core assets were removed, and Kitchener’s evidence chain now points to current fence, zoning and permit guidance.
This log separates a verified rule or program change from a source review. A data-snapshot date is not presented as proof that a municipality changed its rule.
Twenty-five city guides now explain local height, yard, sightline, pool, boundary and approval distinctions with direct municipal source links and a visible last-verified date. This is an editorial source review, not a claim that all 25 municipalities changed their bylaws today. The Saskatoon guide notes that its fence-service page names an older zoning bylaw and directs readers to the current zoning route.
Browse city guides →All 100 municipality records were migrated to the shared municipal core and rechecked against a dedicated official fence, zoning, land-use or planning-authority route. Newly supported facts were propagated into the public city pages, while unresolved conditions remain explicit instead of being converted into guessed heights. The checker now separates flanking/street-side height from corner visibility and sightline rules.
Open research method →Burnaby’s fence guide now points to the current Zoning Bylaw that took effect July 1, 2026. Older handouts are not used as the controlling source.
Open source or context →All 100 city routes were rechecked for source depth. Pages without a verified fence-specific source continue to show the general official route without inventing a local height.
Open source or context →The checker now returns a numeric planning result only where the current research set contains a clear, location-specific height rule. Complex or source-limited cities route to the official source instead.
Open source or context →Verified local change means an official source shows a dated bylaw, program or source change that affects the guide. Source review means we rechecked the authority and page routing but are not claiming the rule itself changed.
Local rules can still change between reviews. Use the linked authority before spending money, applying for a permit or relying on a deadline.
