Thanks Jimmy,

Firstly I must clarify that it was never my intention ignore the by law, i merely wanted to clarify which one overrules which.  I agree people are entitled to peaceful enjoyment of their property however people are also entitled the reonvate and recedorate their property as they see fit and as many people work during the week most work is going to take place on the weekend if it is being done by the owner themselves.  It took me 6 weeks to paint my bedroom as there was extensive preparation to be be done including sanding and i was not allowed to use the sander for more than a few hours.  As a resident i personally would prefer that the other owners just got the noise over and done with in one day rather than disturb me for weeks on end. And believe me I have better things to do on the weekend than to spend every weekend renovating. And it isn’t just on weekends that people are entitled to peaceful enjoyment of their lot.  As a shift worker I lived and had to try and sleep through jack hammering mid week, mid day after I had been at work all night, not ideal but i dealt with it because people are entitled to renovate.

Secondly, my us and them attitude comes from the fact that my EC consists of 1 person, who controls it all, something that will be changing when the AGM comes around (i have only owned this apartment for 6 months).
