Question: What right does a visitor have to demand a visitor car space? A resident was using visitor parking, and a visitor came and was unable to secure a visitor parking spot, so they just parked the resident in.
Answer: We all know that parking can get frustrating but blocking people in like this is probably not the answer.
That’s an unusual situation… Visitors parking is for visitors, but the visitors themselves don’t have any enforcement rights over the body corporate as they don’t have a contractual relationship with them. Rather, the matter would likely be referred through the owner who was connected to the visitor and the Committee could determine the next steps. We all know that parking can get frustrating but blocking people in like this is probably not the answer.
