We have the same issue in our OC of which I’m a member of the EC.
The Plan of Subdivision does not call our open plan car park a ‘car park’ as such – it’s just an area where there are parts of the lots. Nor is it called a car park on the building plans – it’s simply a ‘basement’. But clearly, it is a car park. We have no special rules or by-laws re car parking – just the standard ones for Victoria.
We have the same issue with storage. Some residents treat their car spaces as a junk yard.
It’s often mentioned that OCs could stop this ‘storage’ because it’s a potential fire hazard. But is it really? I see other car parks that have grill cages that get filled with ‘stuff’ that no-one seems to think is a fire hazard.
Could someone point out the rules/regulations of what actually is a fire hazard in a car parking area? Cheers!
