If residents drive taxis and regularly park the taxis in the visitor spaces, can we take any action against the taxi company?

Tenants park their cars in visitor parking. Notices of breach of the by-laws have been sent multiple times to the owner and the tenants, but nothing has changed.

The tenants also drive taxis and regularly park the taxis in the visitor spaces. Can we take any action against the taxi company?

If the company is breaching the by-laws, I would most certainly send the by-law breach notices to the company and bring the breach to their attention.

Tenants, like owners, are responsible to comply with the by-laws. If the company is breaching the by-laws, I would certainly send the by-law breach notices to the company and bring the breach to their attention. Include the vehicle registration details and state that the vehicle continues to park in the visitor car space.

A company that receives a formal notice to comply will be concerned about the matter escalating.

Consider other solutions, like a smart bollard system. A bollard would control the situation via a legitimate booking system. It’s a quick solution that prevents unauthorised people from using the space.
