    And we paid the price??? What are you talking about actually?

    You are obviously not an owner and also have no regard for any laws which don’t suit you.    

    What I’m talking about is that you’ve paid an emotional price in an adversarial encounter.

    When the tenants signed the lease they should have been given a copy of the by laws so they knew what the expected behaviours were for residents, owners and tenants alike.

    Did you address their blocking the driveway on arrival? If not then it is arguable that they have a realistic expectation that a temporary disruption is acceptable.

    I don’t think it is reasonable for the truck to park ‘a short distance away’ when there is a driveway they could use temporarily.

    Would you park there when moving out? If not then why do you expect a tenant to do so?

     For the duration of their tenancy they have been nothing but difficult and over impressed with their self importance. continuously lodging complaints with the owner and the Owners Corp

    One of the joys of being a Secretary is dealing with difficult people.

    As an Owner, and Secretary of my Owners Corp I get to deal with these and other matters as required. Very little conflict, I make sure people know what is required and resolve conflicts in a constructive manner.

    I have on one occasion had to go formal and issue a notice to comply. With the other residents supporting me compliance was forthcoming and the resident concerned now understands what communal involves.

    A recent example was renovations in one unit that necessitated tradespeople in the driveway over a fortnight.

    With consultation and planning it wasn’t a problem. We all want to live here in peace and understand that the disruption might be caused by any of us depending on our circumstances.
