I agree with the comments of both Alley Cat and Cosmo.
Has anyone else had to go though the process we had to when appointing a new Building Manager i.e. at great expense appoint lawyers to draft both a formal tender document and ultimately a contract but with ‘Duties and Responsibilities’ that they left largely to the Exec Committee to work out themselves. Why isn’t there a reference document readily available SOMEWHERE that has a standard checklist of duties / responsibilities for both a Strata Manager and a Building Manager (complementary roles).
It seems crazy that each OC has to re-invent the wheel on this. I’d have thought by now the Dept Fair Trading could have drafted standard contracts for the appointment of both the Strata Manager and the Building Manager which referenced standard checklists for duties etc.
Am I being too cynical in thinking the legal profession sees this as being too good a thing to give away and likes to keep it for themselves?
