I suppose having something written out might be effective. I have already spoken with her in person a few times about this problem, but I become confused as to how to responds. She seems eager to turn this is a authority conflict. For example;

I had called her one night about the parking problem. After about 5 minutes of talking,  I asked her why she is using one of the guest parking stalls instead of her two empty manager spots. Her response was " who are you to question where I choose to park". First of all, I was respectful while asking that question. It was an important question that needed to be asked. Needless to say, the conversation did not really end well.

With that being said, Maybe she will be more calm and understanding if written out. 

Thanks for taking the time to respond to my question. I spoke with someone from the city, and they said it was up to the parking situation is the landlords prerogative. As unprofessional and frustrating as it is, she can allowed whom ever she wants to use her manager spots. Just as I can allow whom ever I wish to use mine. I suppose I could attempt the " harassments" angle, but that wont solve my parking problem. I'm still going to have to park across town and pay for a ride back. What I can say, Be advised about "Village Garden apartments in west Olympia". The landlord has shown poor leadership and most definitely selects favorites. I'm going at the very least report this to BBB. 

I've been searching all day for answers to my questions. I'm hoping someone in here has helpful information. I live in an apartment complex that has only two bedroom units. The big problem is that there are not nearly enough parking stalls to accommodate the number of residents. When all the parking spots are full, my landlord tells me to park down the block in a another parking lot. However, all the buildings down the road are also tow away zones. Out of desperation, I decided to park behind other tenants cars, but back far enough they could still get out, and my landlord is imminently trying to have my vehicle towed. To prevent my vehicle from being towed on nights all parking lots are full, I decided to go to a Hotel for the night. This is a very expensive solution. In addition, The landlord has two manager spots just for her. Instead of using one of those two allocated spots, she decides to use one of the limited guest parking spots. I have already tried to explain my frustration with her, but it was an absolute waste of time. What are my legal options? I just simply want my damn spot. If its turns out that this is completely legal, then I guess im purchasing a uber membership.
