Yes, but why should a majority of your neighbours have voice is what you do with your property?
Why should a majority anywhere have say on anything? It's called Democracy. It's not just "your property". It's property with shared aspects. If you wish for your own non-shared amenities, buy or rent fully detached. Remember, this is *condos* not 'apartments' which are regulated under different legislation.
If I'm retired, and buy a condo, I don't want to have to listen to kids next-door (I'm stating that hypothetically). Some choose not to have their own kids, so why do you have to live next to others'? Ditto pets. And I love both pets and kids, but can appreciate that many others don't. Same with bikes. Same with loud music. Same with fish casseroles, and I love the last three too, but if the majority of the condominimum (sic) are against those, it's their collective right to live with those restrictions.
Condominium - Wikipedia

A
condominium, usually shortened to condo, is a type of real estate divided into several units that are each separately owned, surrounded by common areas jointly owned.
First time I've seen those types of short concrete barriers. Would be great to see those in many other spots where there isn't adjacent parking or significant numbers of mid-block crossing pedestrians. Bloor viaduct comes to mind.
One big concern: How much impact would it take, say in sliding on black ice, for a vehicle to go over those barriers? Not much...about the same force as is required to mount the curb. I'm not too sure those barriers are suffice.
I'd like to see them on Sherbourne.
In addition to the curb and placed directly on top, it would double the height, and be much more likely to deflect the vehicle than allow it over top. I agree, at double the height, I'd have far more faith in safety.
