Charge for driveway space?

[Gino Tomba]

I own a duplex in Old Brooklyn. I want to charge $25 for whichever tenant wants to use the driveway. Reason for doing so is to ensure there is a clear boundary who can and cannot use it.

Is that fair and is my thinking correct or silly?

Another thoughtful approach is not to charge for use of driveway, but to assign it to whomever is willing to cut the lawn... or assign it to the tenant who has resided there the longest.  Over the past year, tenants are fighting about everything... fighting about driveways and garages being at the top of the list... even above who cleans up the dog poop!
