We have a CYV and you can fit two cars in the driveway with care. Also, visitors are supposed to be the only ones who use the excess parking. They are NOT for residents who have multiple cars. It is a bit of a walk from the excess parking for some villas but at least we have some extra places.

We do have one neighbor who watches the excess spaces and when he sees a car there for more than a few days, we calls Village Watch and they find out if it is resident owned and if so, the resident is told to move it. Of course, this person is not well loved in the neighborhood but it is the rule that the excess parking is for visitors not residents.

When we moved here, we brought only one car and bought a golf cart. That is all we need to get around. When we have company, they park in our driveway. If more than one car then we do use excess parking.

I am far more annoyed by the RVs who park in front of their homes for more than the 72 hours allowed in the rules. They make it difficult to get around the street!
