Whale- thank you for your comprehensive response. The other two OC members seem really stubborn. One of the issues with that is, apart from wasting my time to deal with them, is that they are incurring unnecessary costs. For example, the EC meeting on Monday will be attended by the strata manager (whose attendance we will have to pay) – which I find to be a total waste of money. I requested the strata manager not to attend. I suspect that meeting will be followed by another, probably an OC, meeting – for which we will have to pay our strata manager to attend again.
Is there any way that I can stop these unnecessary and meaningless meetings from occurring, or can I make the other two owners (who request these pointless EC and later OC meetings) pay the costs out of their own pockets (ie additional strata fees)?
Can the other two OC members go alone to create and register the SBL regarding my renovation, and then somehow get the strata manger to pass the bill to me? I suspect the answer is no (because of 65A(1) – I will fail the special resolution, and 65A(4)(a) – I will never consent to the SBL), but just double checking.
As you suggested, in the upcoming EC meeting, I will try to explain the advice I got from the DFT, LPI,others and this forum (ie you). Can you please let me know what your background is in relation to these matters is – your depth of knowledge seems impressive?
