NSW: Strata visitor car parking angst, a common source of resident disquiet!

Question: A lot owner has a very regular visitor who has been given a security pass to our garage and his car is regularly in our single strata visitor car parking spot. He has become quite territorial about the space. How do we handle this?

Answer: The owners corporation’s strategy should be to enter into a parking agreement with local council to enforce parking restrictions at the scheme.

While this is not a quick fix for your issue, the owners corporation’s strategy should be to enter into a parking agreement with local council to enforce parking restrictions at the scheme. The agreement must be approved by special resolution of the owners corporation and Council erects signage and patrols the common property to ensure compliance. Council charges for this service and may issue fines of $550 for parking infringements.

NSW Office of Local Government has a useful factsheet for strata parking agreements.
