Firstly, can parking spaces be used to store boats or is the intention that it only for motor vehicles or motor bikes.
The answer to this and most of these questions lie firstly in your by-laws and then in your strata plan.
If your by-laws say parking spaces can only be used for parking vehicles then that’s what should be enforced. The same applies to your original strata plan and the DA issued by the council.
I would say parking a boat there is storage rather than parking – but others might disagree.
Secondly, are cars allowed to park on common ground such as a turning bay.
Usually this is prohibited by a by-law. This is the current model by-law (but your scheme may have something different).
An owner or occupier of a lot must not park or stand any motor or other vehicle on common property, or permit a motor vehicle to be parked or stood on common property, except with the prior written approval of the owners corporation or as permitted by a sign authorised by the owners corporation.
Thirdly, can owners park their vehicle/vehicles on spaces that are owned by other apartment owners.
Not without their permission. That would be trespass. But owners can allow anyone they like to park in their spot.
Also, are owners allowed to store boxes and a myriad of junk within the confines of their car spaces, or is such clutter only allowed within the caged zones.
Check your by-laws relating to storage and parking.
And are owners allowed to store canoes and push bikes within communal areas or are these restricted to same caged zones.
Again check your by-laws. The model one (which you might not have) says this:
An owner or occupier of a lot must not obstruct lawful use of common property by any person except on a temporary and non-recurring basis.
