Hi all,

I have spoken to the resident a few times about the Mercedes and put a note on the car as recently as Thursday.

Just so you can be certain that I'm not ignoring the visitor parking issues and will take instructions from the committee whatever they decide with this

Kind Regards

Greg Newton

I think this person is very good at being charming and fobbing people off., he has been doing it with the building manager for some time.

It’s not fair for one owner to continually take advantage of our parking situation. We have contractors who must come and work on the building and in apartments This morning an A/C contractor was arriving and had no parking available, so I offered him one of my spaces.

I think Greg should ask this 10 year resident to find parking elsewhere, close by.

Cheers

Craig et all,

I agree with you.

The van that used to park, once spoken to, now finds street parking.

I was also very anti the Merc but had opportunity to speak with the ‘offender’ this morning. Hes a 10 year resident, utterly charming and very sorry to be a nuisance.

Apparently the car belongs to his mother who is overseas and he is trying to sell it for her. He’s had interest, only 20,000 on the clock, and hoping for sale soon.

Im for making an exception for a couple of weeks.

I notified Greg of this today.

Cheers

Hi Matt and others in the EC,

It becomes a nuisance with the card method you have suggested Matt, if the visitor, once parked,  has to come up to the apartment to get one of these cards, go back down to put it on the front of the car and then when they leave go back up to the apartment he/she was visiting and return the card.

I think it would be a better idea, with the Merc that’s down there for example, to find out which tenant/owner he/she is visiting in the building. This then puts the onus on the tenant/owner. If it is a tenant, our building manager should then call the real estate agency with whom the tenant has the lease and let them know the situation has continued, despite many notices. If it’s an owner, the building manager should communicate with that owner in some way.

Cheers,

Craig

Hi Matt,

I agree something needs to be done as we have few visitor parking spaces. I think our building manager needs to get tough with the owner of the grey Mercedes, the owner of this car simply fobs him off and ignores him. I asked the building manager to talk to strata management to find out how we can enforce parking rules but I am not sure he will take action.

Regards john

Hi All,
I was recently in a strata building that had a system I have not seen before for visitor parking. I thought it might be worth considering here. We seem to have a never-ending conga line of entitled residents who think they can get free parking.

The system involved giving each lot owner a laminated A5 size card that said something along the lines of "Visitor Parking Pass - Marquis Apartments" followed by the lot owner's unit number. Then when someone wanted to use visitor parking, the lot owner would need to supply them with this reusable laminated card, which they could display on the dash of the parked visitor's car. This would make it easy to identify the visitor's lot and ensure that the visitor had an idea of the rules. On the back of the card were the detailed rules like how long you could stay and that sort of thing.

There were then signs posted in the visitor parking area that stated, "Visitor Parking Passes must be clearly displayed or your vehicle will be towed and fees apply." - A bit of an empty threat on the towing part, but a fee could be charged via an appropriate bylaw.

I'm not sure what others think, but it did seem to work well for this scheme that I was staying in, and it would easily point out who the offenders are either by not having a pass or overstaying with a pass.

Warm regards,
Matt.
