I own a lot in a strata plan of 32 single storey units/villas. On the Strata Plan map the boundaries of the lots are shown, outside of which there is blank space, presumably Common Property but not actually stated on the plan. Each unit has a single garage.
At the complex, at some stage someone has had lines drawn on the asphalt indicating car parking spaces. There are about 26 such spaces. However there is no by-law stating that these are car parking spaces, and they are not identified in any paper work as to who the parking is for. It has been accepted for years that the spaces are for anyone (resident,visitor,trades vehicle etc) to park.
One of the residents is creating a fuss to state that the areas with the lines is all Common Property and therefore no cars should be permitted to park there without specific approval, or a by-law to state this.
The Strata Committee would rather avoid the cost of creating a special by-law to identify these parking spaces as such, but is there any other solution?
And I ask whether it is an accepted practice in other strata plans that if a parking space on common property is shown by painted lines, or a painted sign saying PARKING, that is sufficient to make it so.
