Love the advice received via this forum!
Our EC has so far blocked my Works based on clause 5(1) of our By-Laws:
“An owner or occupier of a lot must not mark, paint, drive nails or screws or the like into, or otherwise damage or deface, any structure that forms part of the common property except with the prior approval of the Owners Corporation.”
My aim is to be seen to be doing everything within my power to help them do their job so, in the absence of anything specific in our By-Laws covering renovations and upgrades within an Owner’s Lot, I’ve provided the EC with a ‘Check-List’, a set of ‘Renovation Rules’ and a proposed ‘Renovation By-Law’, provided to me by a member of the Owners Corporation Network (are we permitted to give them a plug here?) and suggested that they could adopt this format as a template to save other owners having to go through what I’ve had to go through. I’ve then ‘ticked every box’ on the ‘Check-List’/’Renovation Rules’ for them.
Let’s see what the EC comes back with. They’re always very creative.
