    Geez, JimmyT. This question is not about solar systems or even the draft by-law which is essentially the one that was suggested by this forum two years ago and does, indeed include making individual owners responsible for their own panels.

    It is simply whether a new by-law can be proposed at an AGM without having been first recommended by an Executive Committee.

    I haven’t read sections 142-144 of the Act but if it requires the owners who are the beneficiaries of common property rights by-laws to agree in writing to their creation, then surely that is satisfied by the unanimous carriage of a motion at an AGM which is then properly recorded in the minutes circulated to all owners?

    So, once again:

    Is it necessary for the EC to propose a change in by-laws or can the Secretary (or any other owner) put forward a draft resolution to be added to the next AGM agenda?

    And if this is OK, what is the notice period for having a draft resolution included in the AGM agenda?
