Application Questions

Q12. Can I apply for two monthly parking spaces of the concerned estate / court to park my two vehicles?

Ans: Yes. For the sake of fairness, one tenancy should only be accorded priority for one application. The second application of the same tenancy will only be handled after applications of the first three priorities have been entertained and so on. Therefore, you have to submit two application forms and specify which vehicle is accorded the priority.

Ans: Yes. The occupant has to provide the owner’s authorization and a copy of documentary proof of the property ownership, e.g. update land search record when he / she submits the application form. In the case of a recent transaction when the transfer of ownership has not yet been registered, the occupant can provide a letter from solicitor confirming the ownership or other relevant documents as appropriate.

Q14. Can the occupant provide other documentary proof if he / she cannot provide the owner's authorization?

Ans: Yes. If the occupant is unable to submit the owner's authorization letter due to one reason or another, the occupant can provide other appropriate supporting document such as tenancy agreement or address proof etc.
