    You can’t fine anyone anyway, so that’s not even an issue. If someone is persistently parking in a visitor’s spot, you can, for instance, very cheaply train a security camera on the spot. Or you can put a notice on the car saying you believe it has been abandoned and you are about to tow it on to the street where the council will have to deal with it unless they phone your building and/or strata manager and explain where they are staying in the building.

    If it’s an outsider, you can put a notice on the car explaining that they aren’t covered by insurance as they are trespassing and any damage to their car, accidental or deliberate, may not be covered even by their own insurers.

    There’s more than one way to skin this cat – all it takes is a little lateral thinking.
