Subject: PARKING SPACE ISSUE
Dear All,
Please guide me on the following issue.
1) I purchased a flat of @ 700 sq.ft built up about a year back in Mumbai.
2) The building is still with the builder as no CHS has been formed .Presently a temporary committee is managing the show as the builder was neglecting on lot of issues.
3) Total Flats----30
4) Out of 30,23 are sold(2 of which are rented)7 are with builder :he has occupied 2 out of them and plans to sell the rest later.
5) No. of parking spaces available-----19
6) No. of vehicles in the building so far----15
Now the problem is
15 nos of parking spaces have been occupied by the old members(members who have purchased flats earlier say @ 10 years back) who own cars and the additional 4 (including the members of the temp.committee who have 2 flats under different names and already have occupied one parking space for the car they have and reserved the other for future use)has been allotted by the temporary committee to other old members who does not have cars.Now the old members along with the temp.comm.members are blatantly refusing parking space to the new members on the pretext that there are no more spaces available and that the presently available 19 spaces have been procured by fighting with the builder(who had not left sufficient space for parking ) and since only the old members were there to fight with the builder for the parking cause,the new members are not to be given any parking space.They claim they had posted a notice in this regard and that since I have purchased the flat only recently ,I won’t be allowed to have parking space.
Presently I am the only new member and very soon I am planning to buy a car for the family.
I ,Therefore wish to know the following..
a) If I buy a car ,am I eligible to park it in the the remaining 4 vacant spaces or not (Though they have been wrongfully allotted to the so called old members without cars)
b) Whom should I forward my request for the parking of the car in the compound,The builder or the committee.
c) Does this temporary committee have any rights to interfere (and allot parking spaces.) in this regard.
d)What should be my course of action,if I am forcibly asked to remove my car .Can I register a police complaint for this matter.
e) Should I forward a letter of protest to this committee stating their willful misconduct of allotting parking spaces to non-eligible members.
f)I believe there should not be any discrimination between the old and the new members.Aren’t their rights under CHS bye –laws the same.
g) Approximately four of the members (Already having parking spaces) have not even registered there agreement and paid the stamp duty.
Please kindly guide me in this matter.
Thanking You.
