Can condo corporations tow cars who are in breach of parking rules?

The Condo Tribunal was recently asked to rule on whether it was reasonable for the condo corporation to tow a car that was in breach of the parking rules.  It seems that the answer is “yes, but not always”. Once more, reasonableness is the key consideration.

Less than a week after having moved into their condo unit, Mr. Hum had his car ticketed and towed away because he had failed to display the required parking pass. This resulted in a $25 fine and $650 in towing fees.  Mr. Hum contested the reasonableness of this enforcement step taken by the corporation.
