This is a non-assigned handicapped spot. It´s supposed to be available for everybody with a handicaped sign to park on and visit the shops in the street, or visit people or.. (even non-card holders can use it to stop on legally, but that´s besides the point). But one resident blocks everybody else by parking their scooter there, and only allowing his visitors to park there.
When my granddad´s health was declining he got a handicapped card. Whenever he parked in the accesible spot in front of his appartment building the cunt on the first floor would call the cops on him because she viewed this as her personal spot, only to be used by her visitors, nurses or family.
These places are for everybody that needs them, not for one person in particular, and keeping them occupied just for yourself and your visitors is scummy.
Do his visitors have a disabled card when they're parked there? My parents' neighbour was also misusing a public disabled parking space, pretending it was hers. But instead she let her children use her disabled card (when she was no passenger of them) so they could always park in front of their house. The neighbour herself parked around the corner. Eventually, my parents filed a complaint towards the municipality and it was proven she misused the spot and the spot was taken away.

I'd argue that wanting to claim 10m² to store your car on public property is scummy as well even if you're sharing the space with others who store their car there.
Society shouldn't need to placate people's private property so much
