What Goes Out This Week?
Type your address: the next collection days at it, and exactly which of the garbage, green bin, blue box and grey box goes out on each one — read live from the City's own calendar, holiday shifts included.
Is My Property Heritage?
Check your address against Kingston's three heritage registers — designated, listed, or inside a conservation district — and what each one means before you change anything.
Can I Add a Residential Unit?
Search your address against the zoning by-law's own schedules for a second, third or fourth residential unit — what's flagged, in plain words, with a link to the City's permit guide for everything this can't check.
Winter Parking Ban
Whether you can leave the car on the street tonight — January and February are banned outright, December and March only when the weather calls for it.
How Long Is the Wolfe Island Ferry Line?
How busy the line is right now at the Kingston and Marysville docks — reported by the people standing in it, since nobody publishes a wait time for the free, first-come first-served Wolfe Islander IV.
Who’s on My Ballot in Kingston?
Type your address to see the mayor, councillor and school trustee races you vote in on 26 October, every certified candidate, and where and when you can vote.
