    Have I misread this?  He's parking on the grass (which is his) and that's where the car was damaged by a passing oven, no?

    I get the whole thing with too many cars for the car spaces (especially with more kids growing up to drive cars but not using them to leave home) but this seems like a bit of give and take is seriously lacking in this development.

    It sounds like NRB is OK on the grass where his car should be reasonably safe from reversing neighbours and itinerant kitchen appliances.  On the other hand, if the grass is also common property, then there's only one solution, either park on the street or sweet-talk the neighbours.
