The Truth about Street Parking
Is parking allowed on the streets in The Summit or not?
Opinions vary.
Mine, based on the By-Laws, is that parking on the streets is fully legal, because the roads are public roadways, owned by and maintained by Richland County.
I got into it with the former president of the HOA, Justin Martin, who insisted that the HOA controlled parking on the streets in The Summit. When I asked about written evidence or proof, he said he didn't have to prove anything to me.
I requested the Deed for Barony Place Circle from the County Recorder of Deeds office. After waiting for two years I filed a FOIA Request and received it within a week. The Deed contains no restriction on parking and no reference to the CC&Rs or By-Laws.
Recently I was informed by one committee chairman that "We are not allowed to park in the streets."
I asked for an opportunity to discuss that with him. He hasn't responded.
A long-time and active HOA member told me,
"I am not aware of anything in the documents regarding parking in streets, just comments on what rules the HOA has. When and from who.......who knows!"
"My understanding has always been NO PARKING ON STREET OVERNIGHT. Vendors and guests are fine during day and early night
Good to notify office if you are having a party or expect a number of guests."
