      Perusing the minutes from our AGM earlier this year, before the new rules kicked-in, I see a non-owner tenant in our block of 36 had her owner’s proxy plus four other proxies. She had actively sought them to push her own agenda which not everyone shares and there are many apathetic owners here.

      Maybe this was legal, but is it worth making a fuss about?

        There’s nothing illegal about what the tenant has done (and good on her for getting involved). You can’t legislate for the don’t-knows and don’t-cares; it’s up to the rest of us to educate and activate them.

        FYI, under the new laws she would be restricted to one proxy (5% of 36 = 1.8 = 1) although I wonder if she would get her full 1.8 if it went to a poll vote. I shall ask.
