if the concept is to distinguish between areas where you can park/drive, 
and areas where
you can't, the multipolygon thing seems pretty reasonable, comparable to 
using it to
represent lakes with islands (places you can swim/boat vs places you can't).

a tree may be in a parking area, but how exactly do you propose to park 
on it?
