    Thanks for providing that copy of your special by law jeff.f.  It will no doubt be a good reference for all on flat chat.

    The only problem I have with it is the wording “the OC must not unreasonably withhold its approval to the parking……..”  In my complex, an owner would no doubt say “but I have two cars and one parking spot, you are being unreasonable”.  

    I would include a list of what is “reasonable”.  I believe in extenuating circumstances it would be unreasonable to not allow someone to park in the visitors car spots.  Matters such as structural repairs on a garage/car spot, OC repairs to an apartment (where an owner may have to store furniture items in the garage/parking space whilst repairs were carried out).  And for the purposes of someone moving in or out of a unit –  we all know how horrible this experience is, so letting someone park for a few days whilst they have cardboard boxes in the garage is something we would all appreciate in those circumstances.

    So that is the only inclusion I would make to a by law for the visitors car spots.
