Students: Winter in the City
Be one of the people
who make Kingston work.
Queen's University, St. Lawrence College or the Royal Military College student: learn how your new home city changes in the winter by exploring these links:
- Winter parking: Starting Dec. 1, and until the end of March, parking is prohibited on City streets from 1 a.m. to 7 a.m. Winter parking restrictions ensure snow plows can respond effectively to weather.
- Need parking? If you live between King, West, Clergy and William Streets you can take advantage of the Residential On-street Parking Permit pilot program (permit holders are not exempt from winter parking restrictions).
- Crime prevention: Secure your Kingston home and your belongings during the holiday season using these tips.
- Winter weather and snow removal: Find out about storm warnings affecting Kingston, local weather updates, your snow removal responsibilities and when winter control efforts will arrive at your street.
- Winter waste placement: Make sure your Green Bin, garbage and recycling is seen and safe to retrieve when snow piles up. Get your personalized holiday Green Bin, garbage and recycling collection schedule.
- Good Wrap: Prefer re-usable or recyclable gift wrap this holiday season and avoid giving your gifts a bad wrap.
- Report an infraction of a City bylaw: You deserve a clean and peaceful place to study. If your neighbours are unreasonably noisy or messy, they may be in contravention of a City bylaw. Explore the links at right and report any infractions to Bylaw Enforcement.
- Get a job with the City: Put this link in your calendar for February 2012: the City of Kingston Summer student positions are posted by mid February and close mid March.
