Turkey’s Supreme Court Rules Reserved Parking Spaces Illegal
Turkey’s Supreme Court Rules That Reserving Parking Spaces Is Illegal
The ruling applies to shared parking areas in apartment buildings and residential complexes.
Turkey’s Supreme Court has ruled that creating a private parking space in the shared parking area of an apartment building or residential complex by using bollards, chains, or other physical barriers is contrary to the law.
According to the court, shared parking areas are part of the common property of all residents and cannot be used exclusively by a single owner without legal grounds.
What the Ruling Means
The decision confirms that residents are not permitted to reserve parking spaces on common property by installing barriers or other obstacles.
Such installations are considered an unlawful restriction on the rights of other property owners to use shared areas.
Why It Matters
The use of shared parking spaces has long been a common issue in many residential communities. The new ruling reinforces the principle that common areas must remain accessible to all residents on equal terms.
