GaragesFeb 18, 2017

My co-op has limited on-premises parking consisting of garages and parking spaces. As such there is a waiting list for shareholders seeking on-premises parking. A board member maintains a garage for storage purposes only which is in violation of the House Rules. The board member is aware that he is in violation yet refuses to relinquish his garage claiming that as a shareholder he has a right to the garage. Can the Board & Managing Agent force the board member, or any shareholder, to relinquish the garage? Additionally, can a fine be assessed the the board member for each month he is in violation of the house rule?>

sorry for late response - co-op_owner Aug 23, 2017

hope you've solved this by now. if you haven't - this is a gross abuse by a board member. fire laws prohibit storing materials in a garage - we have had that situation and it was confirmed as a violation. by not addressing this your building is compounding the issue and endangering the other shareholders. shout it from the rooftops.
