Oh huh yeah a bike in my driveway shouldn't be a violation since it's a vehicle huh. Im not sure what I would chain it to to prevent it getting stolen though
Even better, let them steal or move it. If you keep your garage door open to get in and out easier, you can put a small security camera in there to monitor it, and when it disappears and is replaced by your neighbor's car you'll have video evidence to give to the police.

Is it possible to tell them you're withholding this payment until they deal with the parking issue?
That is possible. Honestly though from attending the last HOA meeting it seems like a huge number of residents (understandably) just can't pay the $10k. And this in turn will delay the roof delays making them even more expensive lol

They really fucked up by not even trying to set up payment plan options though? Its so out of touch to expect most people to have $10k laying around with a few months notice

You can probably get a busted motorcycle from a junkyard that doesn't work for a couple hundred bucks (but they won't know that) and leave it parked in your driveway the whole time.

Ohh no i wouldn't leave my garage open, I have a lot of belongings in there. I just open it when I need to get the wheelchair in/out. I would love to have a security camera set up somehow though. I had to get a ring cam cause package thieves/dumb kids messing with my door

You could just set a second Ring up next to the garage door

Traffic barrel, but it seems like a silly thing to get stuck on, so I'm not sure why it was even worth bringing up.

$150 plus 2 bags of concrete and whatever kind of post you want to mount it to and your problems are solved.

I would get photos of him parked and complain several times to the HOA first.

Yeah, this is nuts to me, TC. I'm sorry this saga is still ongoing. I probably would look into getting legal representation if they were doing this to me. Surely there's some law out there that could help you since you're disabled.

Yup, I left notes on his windshield explaining the whole situation politely. It took a while to actually find out who the neighbor was, but we have spoken to him face to face multiple times now. I have stared him in the face while sitting in my wheelchair as he backed his car out. He's just like "oh sorry it won't happen again" (it happens again)

Yeah I do really just need to tow him next time I catch it. I have called before, and they always take so long to get out here, the neighbor comes and moves it by the time they call back. Other times its just really late and I dont want to deal with it OR it's a different car and I want to give him the benefit of the doubt (he gets new cars really frequently its weird). I just need the balls and patience to do it next time -_-

I fucking LOVE getting people towed. I remember I used to have to watch the parking lot at my job many years ago during days the city had big events. If there was cars parked on our side? Get them towed.

It was great, especially when I'd get to tow a Viper or some other stupidly expensive car.

One time I towed the car of one of the executives, was great, he apologized to me the next day for not telling me he was parking there.

Oh absolutely. Local news outlets would probably love a story about a disabled person with a shitty neighbor making their life more difficult and an HOA that doesn't do anything about it.

Where would I even start with that? I assume it would be very costly. Ive thought about posting on r/HOA or r/legal for advice but I dont rly use reddit
Many lawyers will provide free consultation meetings and give you a good idea of what they could do for you in your situation.

r/legal is a great idea as well.

Our store was next to a HVAC repair shop.
My friend would park at the pole that lined up at the end of our building and I would park behind him. We shared the spot behind mine with the HVAC place because after opening there would rarely be anyone there during business hours. One day I got there early but I needed to do errands and deliveries. Sometimes the Hvac guys would park way too close that I couldn't get out. We asked them multiple times to leave a bit more space so I could get out of the spot. With some thought and luck the city was building a overpass and had cleared out the area across from the store. There were parking spaces from the autoshop that was there before it was demolished. We ended up using those for our vehicles. What I'm saying is find alternatives, sometimes they work out to your favor

i just remember youtube has a channel dedicated for tows when they shouldn't of parked there. i should watch a few of em.
i like the part with the reactions where they later find out 2 hours later the car is gone.

It's not an unfounded question.

Some people will completely blow off complaints from minorities. They view minorities complaining as people seeking attention or being annoying for the sake of it. But if Karen McMAGAWhiteAsTheSnow complained, they'd hop right to fixing it because "Oh she has a legitimate complaint"
I think his point was that the OP mentions being in a wheelchair, and you ask about discrimination based on sexuality, not physical disability.

Everywhere I've lived, parking in or outside someone else's driveway is grounds for towing.

they have this for a resident who have trouble due to a disability. there's a big blue sign signaling it's the tenants spot and no one else could park there.

there's never any beef. all assigned parking.
