I have a variation on the above problem. I live in a 4 townhouse complex, all owner-occupied. Each has its own carspace. Two of the owners have country relatives who visit from time to time, staying with the respective owners for a week or more. During their stay the visitor takes over the single visitor car parking space, sometimes leaving their car there for days and nights on end. I assume that this arrangement has been in place for many years. My complaints have been met with, “I'm a visitor.” or “It's hardly ever used, so why not?” I suppose that it's better than being told to 'f…off'
During one of these extended visits my visitors are forced to park elsewhere on the common propertyy or in the street. As we're only a small community and I like to keep the peace I'm reluctant to take this any further but it's bloody annoying. There's no point my complaining to the OC (I'm the chairman of the OC). What can I do about it?
