    As far as i know there is no legal definition of ‘visitor’  but this is something you can attend to in your own by-laws by, for instance saying that visitors during the day have a maximum of, say, three hours and overnight they have to arrive after 6pm and leave by 7.30 am.  Or whatever.  It’s entirely up to you and your neighbours to set the parameters to suit the way your building runs.

    Having said that, anyone parking permanently in visitor parking is not a visitor. However, it’s the resident you have to go after since you have no sanctions over non-residents.

    Start a discussion now about drawing up a by-law for your next general meeting – if nothing else, it will be interesting to discover what your neighbours think a visitor is.
