… the strata can’t assign you a different car space. Any other car spaces are either lot owner property or common property.
I can think of plenty of examples in cases like this where the committee has agreed to allow the owners to use a visitor space and swapped with the “awkward” space. Sure, it’s not strictly legal but there are no stratakops coming round to check. A friendly arrangement can be made on the proviso that there doesn’t need to be any by-laws or any legalistic over-management of a simple situation.
It’s a victimless crime and grown-ups should be able to sort this out themselves without running off to lawyers. There are very few strata schemes that are 100 per cent compliant with the law, yet we survive.
