Hi,
Talking about the EC member behaviour I would like to ask your opinion on the following matter:
Three members of the executive committee have put their names to a demand that a long term tenant removes his vehicle from another owner's car park although the owner of the car park has allowed the tenant to park his car there.
The three claimants allege that the truck, as it is currently parked, is in breach of 3 by-laws .
These are: (1) Noise pollution.
(2) Degrades the appearance of the building
(3) Infringes on common property
They have presented this demand as though it were an official decision of the Executive Committee, however this does not accord with the the facts of the situation or reflect the opinion of the Chairman and other members of the Committee, who were not notified of the meeting and did not vote on the matter. We note that a ‘special general meeting’ requiring 72 hours notice is required by Law before such a matter can be put to a vote and acted on. No such meeting was called, however; the three claimants have proceeded to issue a ‘notice’ to the tenant regardless of the fact that their meeting on the matter was invalid.
The Strata Manager was under so much pressure from these 3 EC members that a CTTT application was lodged.
The other 2 members of the executive committee are of the opinion that the claims are mischievous and completely bogus, amounting to harassment, and that the vehicle in question can remain where it is parked for as long as it needs to be there.
The issue is that these 3 owners always want to be part of the EC year after year. What is the best way to get these 3 people removed from the Executive Committee or from becoming members of the EC in the future? This is not the first time they abuse their position.
