For a village of only 8,100 people, adding the data manually + using Tasking Manager might be your best option.
As for your custom web map, have you considered using CARTO <https://carto.com/> [0] or MapboxStudio <https://www.mapbox.com/studio/> [1]? They are both great web OpenStreetMap based map solutions that can get you a web map within no time. Nothing against QGIS... but it's a little clunky trying to symbolize all your OSM & custom layers. Parcel data shouldn't be imported into OSM, however you can import that as a custom dataset into your custom Web map (which would look really slick!). Best of luck!
