It appears that the other two board members went behind my back to start an extremely strict set of parking rules plus gave the towing company permission to tow just about any car for any reason (this is the same towing company I highly suspect they removed my registration sticker off my work vehicle just so they could tow it - the sticker was on the day before in a vehicle checklist).
I didn't even know anything about this (I knew we had worked on getting permits last year but that stopped last fall) until I got a letter from the management company explaining the new set of rules.
While I do agree with some of them (parking in the fire lane, parking on the grass, parking where there isn't a spot) it's extremely strict. We have a lot of unoccupied units and many of us used them (with the expectation that we won't be able to use them if someone moves in). Not anymore (hmm, I wonder if the president's wife will stop parking in the unoccupied spot, too?).
I took Kiri for a walk though one part of the parking lot - with the new rules, 8 out of 13 cars would be towed. Well, that is if the towing company actually enforces the rules and doesn't just selectively enforce them.
So now I have to park my work vehicle in the guest spots which are NOT as secure where I need to park and with as much as the towing company seems to town on their own accord, it might be too much of a risk so I might have to start leaving it at the office and drive my own car to work (great, there goes a little fringe benefit I get).
And I thought the idea of a board was to discuss things like this with all active members, not just one who wants it their way and the "yes man". I am quite annoyed right now and I even told the president my thoughts about this.
