      The root of many strata schemes’s parking problems is simply residents having too many cars for the available parking.  Certainly the case with ours.

      One radical solution would be for a strata scheme to implement its own car sharing scheme to discourage residents from having multiple cars.  Buy some cars, allocate permanent spaces to them, insure them approporiately, and set up a booking system for them.  User pays by the hour, on a scale designed to encourage short trips (eg., shopping, or the school run) and penalize long absences as that stops others using the car.  The transfer of parking spaces to the share car will further reward using the share car and penalize using a private car, if parking is tight in the scheme.

      Has any strata scheme actually implemented anything like this?  Would it be practical? (Sure, there would be some hurdles to overcome).

      Cheers
