Small business identity card parking permit
The small business identity card permit is to provide special short-term parking privileges for drivers of commercial or delivery and pick-up vehicles, not including passenger services, in the downtown and business districts of the City. The permit allows drivers to temporarily park on-street in “Loading” or signed “No Parking” zones. Permit holders are allowed to stop, for purposes of delivery, pick-up, or loading, for: (i) up to fifteen (15) minutes in a "No Parking Zone"; or (ii) up to fifteen (15) minutes in a "Loading Zone".
Day care parking permit
The day care parking permit is to provide a safe and convenient manner for the drop-off and pick-up of day care users (i.e. children), without a significant disruption to the availability of on-street parking or the operation of the street.
This allows the establishment to have a temporary pick-up and drop-off zone along the street, where vehicles can stop for the purpose of picking up children. “No Parking” zones are established on-street adjacent to the day care centres and permits are then issued to provide special fifteen minute privileges for loading and unloading only in that zone.
Permit holders can park for no more than fifteen minutes only in the defined area that corresponds to the permit.
Special events parking permit
Special event parking permit is to provide short-term on-street parking privileges under special circumstances, typically for infrequent not-for-profit or charitable events at locations such as schools, places of worship, and other institutions. Permits are issued to provide patrons some relief from time-restriction regulations when a special parking longer-duration demand is anticipated that cannot be accommodated off-street.
Special event parking permit – funeral
The special event parking permit – funeral is to provide short-term on-street parking privileges for funerals. The permit is to allow patrons attending a funeral to park longer than is otherwise permitted on specified streets. It is not intended to provide any special privilege with respect to metered parking, loading zones, no stopping zones, or other parking-restricted areas.
Temporary consideration parking permit
The temporary consideration parking permit provides short-term on-street parking privileges under special circumstances. Permits are issued in circumstances when off-street parking spaces are displaced temporarily, such as during off-street construction activities or when a garbage dumpster may occupy a property’s parking space. Permits may be issued for both residential and non-residential uses. The intent of this permit is to provide relief from parking regulations for infrequent and unavoidable circumstances when off-street parking is temporarily unavailable.
Temporary Consideration permits will not be issued for the use of City streets for the operation or parking of vehicles or equipment by contractors or moving companies as these requests are administered through Encroachment Permits at 613-580-2424 ext. 16000.
