…  Setting that aside I am not sure that the EC would have the power to resolve to grant you that permission, because effectively you are asking to be granted exclusive use of a part of the common property, and that is a matter for the OC to consider at a general meeting…

 

Hi scotlandx, i acted on the basis of his link on the fair trading website, under the question ‘I want to park in a section of the driveway that’s common property. Can I get permission to do this?‘:

The link says:

I want to park in a section of the driveway that’s common property. Can I get permission to do this?

Send a written request to the secretary or strata managing agent. Permission should then be voted on at a general or executive committee meeting.

 

Do you think the website is incorrect?
