Hi
We’re an industrial strata complex with 23 units in Sydney, NSW. Each unit has a number of parking spaces allocated (on title) and there is no visitor parking.
We have one owner with around 25 staff who is happy for them to park in everyone elses spots. I gather from talking with people who have spoken to him that he tells his potential employees that there is heaps of parking because it makes it easier for him to find employees!
Any ideas on what we can do? The other EC members say we can’t do anything because the employees aren’t “owners” or “tennants” and so are treated like “visitors” with regards to parking enforcement.
Someone tried putting a note on an illegally parked car and, in return, their car got keyed. So there is some reluctance for going down that path…

One expensive option would be for individual owners to install bollards in their own parking spaces and issue keys to whoever they wish to permit to park in those spaces. If that requires a resolution of a general meeting to permit an owner to install a bollard in their own parking space (I don’t know if it does), and if people want to take that route, you could quietly assemble a group of owners that amounts to a majority to agree that they will support the motion. The owners who support the motion could then all propose it together so no-one is identified as a ring-leader.
If you decide that no motion is required to install a bollard on a parking space that is within your own title area then you could arrange for a ‘bulk-buy’ all at once so you can get it done less expensively due to the economy of scale. Once you know a majority are on board, the ‘group’ could offer it to all owners, including the miscreant. That would be absolutely fair, transparent and without bias. How could he object?
