    That guy who has been here 10 years only has one car, why should he be allowed to park there!  Well, why shouldn’t he?  

    And, as you know, the reason really is because they are visitor spots.  

    It amazes and amuses me that some people (not you, Struggs) can’t grasp the concept of “visitor”. The reason the spaces are empty a lot of the time is so that people who need them can use them.  They aren’t spares or optional extras.  They are there for doctors, plumbers, electricians, pizza delivery people, relatives, friends, police officers, interior designers, lift mechanics, couriers, strata managers and anyone else who needs a safe place to park for a few minutes or a couple of hours. One selfish resident can stop all those people from finding somewhere to park.  I reckon the current rewrite of strata laws is going to allow illegally parked cars to be towed and/or owners to fine by-law breachers directly for obvious things like illegal parking.  Bring it on, say I.
