Peta,
My apologies, obviously I was a bit hard.
You attended the AGM and are on the EC, so you’re doing the best you can.
It definitely sounds like a “dysfunctional” OC, so I agree with Scotty, CCB and Cobra. Go for a compulsory strata manager.
You have:
1) A deadlocked EC (with 6 members).
2) A failure by the EC to attend to essential repairs and possibly dangerous situations.
3) An EC which thinks it can subsequently veto an OC decision. Although they may argue that they have “allocated” the money for an expert report, just not spent it yet.
