Resident street parking is a non-starter in K-W today, and will continue to be so until and unless a resident street parking permit system is implemented.

I can't speak for K-W but when I lived in Toronto overnight parking enforcement was lax. It was cheaper to pay the occasional parking ticket (perhaps one or two per month) than to rent a parking space or make other arrangements. I know this because a neighbour used to have several "beaters" parked up and down our street despite frequent phone calls from the rest of us to bylaw control. Maybe enforcement in K-W is different.
