In my experience, the tow company will only tow a car that is parked in your assigned space if the manager specifically asks them to do this, but it is highly unlikely that a manager will do this. Many apartment complexes contract with tow companies to tow away cars that are parked in red zones, disabled spaces without displaying the proper placard or license plate, or otherwise improperly parked. Many tow companies will make periodic patrols for this purpose.
You may want to consider printing notices to put on vehicles that park in your space that say," This vehicle is parked in an assigned space and will be towed at the owner s expense". This has worked for me in the past. Most offenders will think that the notice was supplied by the manager.
Good luck to you.

if the parking spot is assigned to you and included in the lease, you need to post a notice on the car that is being parked there that if they don't comply with the lease agreements that you will have the car towed(whether you can or not)
but the parking spaces unless definitely assigned are available to anyone who lives there or is visiting

You have misinterpreted what was told to you. The manager cannot and will not tow them. It is not his job and he does not have the ability to do it. Remember - you said the building has a contract with the towing company. The landlord is NOT going to do it. Are you sure the parking spaces are "assigned"? Or have they just over-booked the spots with more cars than what will fit? You have no authority to tow it. If you are caught, you will be charged with theft - grand theft auto, regardless of where you leave it. Since the manager has decided to do nothing about it, park elsewhere.

You have stayed in the same rental for 21 years. If you are not assigned a parking space, you are not' entitled to have a vehicle towed because you consider this your parking space.
Your lease agreement would have to state, you are assigned a particular parking space.
It would appear as if you are not assigned a space, your property manager or landlord is not taking you serious.
Th tow company is under contract with and to your landlord. The tow company would have a list of those entitled to call and have cars towed. The landlord would provide the tow company the list of individuals that would be
authorized to call this tow company and have cars towed at this rental complex.
Apparently you are not on this list as indicated by the tow company when you called.
You have no authority as to where a person would park in the rental complex parking lot. It appears as if there is random parking, and no one has an assigned parking space.
Your landlord is not making an effort t enforce your claim of a parking space.
I hope this has been of some benefit to you, good luck.

Take photos, submit them to the management and demand that they do something so you can park in your assigned parking spot. Check your lease to see if you actually do have an assigned parking spot before you go causing a fuss over this situation. If you do have an assigned parking spot, I also suggest you leave a kind note on the windshield of the person parking in your space.

Does your lease reference a specific parking space or just a parking space.? If the former then your landlord has breached the terms of the lease and you would have to take him to court. If the latter then you have no grounds to complain. Google 'landlord tenant laws" and your state's name for details.

Submit the complaint in writing - and continue to do so every single time it happens.
Send copies to the landlord.
Get receipt of delivery.
Take photos of the car in the space.
And if all else fails - seek legal action.

Talk to an attorney - you should be able to sue your scumbag manager for breech of contract if you document everything - start taking pictures of the car parked in your space with your cell phone in the photo showing that day's date; send requests to your landlord to address the problem by certified mail, return receipt requested (keep copy of letter) - or maybe e-mail is better documentation, I don't know - ask an attorney how to nail this scumbag Donald Sterling - with a name like that, you just KNOW he's a douche!
