    Default Can HOA Restrict Parking for One Household but Not for All?

    My question involves a condominium located in the State of: California

    My wife and I live in California and lease townhouse. We recently received a letter from the HOA. The letter is as follows;

    "Please be advised that your tenant is allowed to park their vehicle in the driveway on street sweeping days, however your tenant's vehicle cannot block any garages or the ability of any residents to leave the driveway. Please have your tenant park their vehicle in another building's driveway on street sweeping days as the residents living in your building cannot leave due to your tenant parking their vehicle in the their buildings driveway. "


    We have never parked our car in such a manner a person can not leave the premises.

    I have spoke with all 4 residents in my building and they said they do not have any issues with our parking. I spoke with the president of the Board of Directors regarding a complaint I had received when we first moved in a year ago. I showed him how I had parked and he said my parking was fine and there was plenty of room for residents to leave the driveway.

    It just does not sit right with me the HOA has asked me to park in another buildings driveway, yet anyone else is free to park in my building's driveway. Shouldn't rules apply to all and not just one household? To my knowledge, my neighbors in my building have not received the same letter.

    Also, should I explain to my landlord through the property management company my side of the story?

    I was given the Rules and regulations which according to the opening paragraph has, "some of the rules applicable," to my complex.

    I did not receive a full copy of the CCRs upon move in. I requested a full copy of the CCRs from the property manager today.

    Thank you for the suggestion. I did not realize there were extra rules not listed on the Rules and Regulations.

    The Rules and Regulations do not address my question regarding different rules for different households in the community.

    How is it legal for the association to single me out but not the other people who park in the alley driveways on street sweeping days?

    Is it necessary for me to be the community narc and take pictures of all the cars parked in the alley driveways and report it to the association?
