where the permit parking sign “EXCEPT BY PERMIT” and Pay & Display signs co-exist (in this case you don’t have to pay)

on the permitted side of the street where alternate side parking is in effect from Mar. 31 to Nov. 30. In most areas you can park on one side of the street from the 1st day to the 15th day of each month and on the other/opposite side of the street from the 16th day to the last day of the month
Read all parking signs: FLEX cars cannot be released where any other restrictions are displayed even if an “EXCEPT BY PERMIT” sign is displayed AND even if parking is permitted at the time that you release the car
Pay attention to arrows on the signs, too. Verify that they cover the zone where you intend to park. The arrows can indicate the beginning or the end of the residential parking zone
FLEX cars must comply with usual regulation: park 9 metres from an intersection (unless otherwise posted)
Do not park in spaces reserved for accessible parking permit holders, on Private Property or in front of a driveway/laneway or in a Fire Route
Park 3 meters away from a fire hydrant
