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.

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. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">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. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">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. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">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. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal">Warm regards, <br>Matt.<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><div name="messageSignatureSection"><p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p><pre>P<o:p></o:p></pre><pre>-- <o:p></o:p></pre><pre>** DO NOT SEND PRIVATE OR CONFIDENTIAL MATERIAL VIA EMAIL <o:p></o:p></pre><pre><o:p> </o:p></pre><pre>Matt Perkins<o:p></o:p></pre><div><p class="MsoNormal">0403571333<o:p></o:p></p></div></div></div><span>-- </span><br><span>ec mailing list</span><br><span>ec@mailman.perkins.id.au</span><br><span>http://mailman.perkins.id.au/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ec</span><br></div></blockquote></div></body></html>
