My car parking space in my housing society in Pune is an open one. This is a real problem because my car gets heated up in scorching heat. Hence, I decided to install a shed. But I too had this question in mind: Can society cover open parking? In a housing society, it's more complicated than just constructing a shed. Covering open parking involves rules, permissions, and sometimes penalties if not done legally.

Can I Cover Open Parking in a Society?

Many societies now use tools like the

NoBrokerHood Parking Management System

to maintain records and streamline approvals for parking-related changes. On discussing the same with a member of a society committee, I learned that:

  1. To cover open parking in a society, It's a must to obtain written consent from the managing committee of the society. 

  2. The managing committee and, often, the local municipal government must give their prior approval before covering open parking spaces in the majority of housing societies. 

  3. Permanent enclosures or sheds are usually prohibited because they may violate common area rules and building codes. 

  4. Enclosing or permanently covering open parking may be considered a criminal offense under the PMC Act & Rules.

  5. Compared to permanent sheds, temporary canopies have a higher chance of approval.

  6. After paying the necessary costs or fines, the society may apply to PMC for an "awning" type cover.

I hope this helps!
