The bylaws of the Corporation state the following:
Bylaw One Section 10.6 (e) Exclusive Use Areas
The Residential Owners and the Commercial Owner shall have the joint use of the parking stall designated as the first “P3” parking stall in the south-west corner on Level A of the Condominium Plan, for use by the janitor.
The caretaker does not park in this designated stall but parks in P1/12. Not only does he have a very large vehicle, but has installed a sizeable storage unit behind his vehicle. This results in the vehicle parked in front of him to edge closer to the first corner turn after entering the parkade. This of course creates a traffic hazard where vehicles both entering and exiting the parkade, are at risk of unnessary collision. The size of the caretakers’ vehicle also creates a similar hazard for those parked on the north wall when attempting to park or exit their stall. A smaller vehicle must be parked in this stall (P1/12) and the storage unit removed in this very confined area. The bylaws must be enforced and the caretaker must park in his designated stall.
The SCC handbook of 2012 states the following:
Four residential guest stalls are available at the east end of the north driveway. These are for guests on a short term basis. If stays are extended other arrangements for parking should be made. The guest stalls are not intended for people living in the building. Misuse of these stalls can result in a parking ticket.
Three commercial stalls are located on the east end of the south driveway. These are commercial visitor stalls for short term visitor of tenants use (one hour). Misuse can result in a parking ticket.
There is no parking available for Contractors or service personnel either on site or in the basement. Permits for street parking are available from the City of Saskatoon.
As for building regulations relating to visitor parking, there is little if any enforcement in both residential and commercial designated guest parking. Contractors also continue to park in designated guest parking. Motorcycles are often illegally parked in the emergency zone immediately outside the south commercial entrance.The board and management have failed to ensure respect for the bylaws and the building’s regulations. Enforcement of these bylaws and regulations must begin immediately.
It is therefore requested that the board provide an immediate written notice to all unit owners that all parking rules and regulations will be enforced including the use of ticketing. (There has been no enforcement of this clearly stated provision in our handbook.)
Failure to provide this enforcement on the part of the board, management and/or the caretaker, may result in a request of the court to ensure appropriate enforcement.
