The city of Ottawa should have a website with links to 'zoning bi-laws' for each neighborhood or a number to call to ask for info on where to find details about zoning.
I think at in the absence of 'complaints' that most cities would likely turn a blind eye to 'home daycare' cause there is little difference between what we do and if a family of 6 kids moved into the neighborhood - the traffic we elicit is minimal and so forth ... I think the rules are more for preventing someone from opening a noisy tool and die in their garage or turning an entire home into a massage parlor business or something with increased traffic and well neighbors complaining about property values and so forth .... however IMO you never know if you are gonna get one of THOSE neighbors who was demanding that a home business comply with zoning so it is always BEST to make sure ours does to avoid issues /stress down the line!
