Parking Enforcement for HOA, Condominium and Townhome Associations

For boards and property managers in Lexington and Central Kentucky.

Parking is the complaint a board hears more than any other, and it is the one a board is least equipped to handle. Nobody volunteered for the association so they could knock on a neighbor’s door about a parking space.

You set the rules. We enforce them.

The parking rules are the association’s. They are in your declaration, your bylaws, or whatever the board has adopted since. We do not write them and we do not change them.

We enforce what you give us, and we enforce it the same way for every unit on the property. If the board changes a rule, we enforce the new one. If the board tells us to leave something alone, we leave it alone.

What boards are usually dealing with

Residents parking in spaces assigned to other units. Guests of one unit taking four spaces every weekend. People who do not live on the property at all using it as free parking for somewhere nearby. Unit owners with more vehicles than their allotment. Work vans, boats and trailers taking spaces meant for residents. Vehicles that have not moved since last year.

The rules are usually already in the declaration. The association has nobody to enforce them.

Why associations use us

Enforcement stops being neighbor against neighbor. It becomes a rule applied by an outside company that has no relationship with anybody on the property and no reason to treat one unit differently from another.

It also does not come out of the association’s budget. There is no charge to the property for our enforcement services — the violators pay. See how it works.

Permits without hang tags

Most associations we work with use ePermit, at www.PermitRegistration.com. The owner or manager invites each resident by email to register their vehicle, and once registered the License Plate becomes the Parking Permit.

Nothing to issue, nothing to track, nothing to collect back when somebody moves out, and nothing to replace when a tag is lost, stolen or copied. A resident only updates anything if their vehicle or License Plate changes.

Signage that holds up

Kentucky generally requires one sign per entrance. We post well beyond the minimum, at double the required size, with reflective border and reflective lettering. See the comparison.

Bringing it to your board

We are used to presenting to boards and owners’ councils and to answering the questions that come up in those meetings — liability, resident reaction, guests, and what happens at two in the morning when somebody is unhappy. Call and we will come to the meeting.
