Dear Queenslander, what a sane contribution & bravo to QCAT! What I found really objectionable earlier was the first post on this topic (see below), relishing the prospect of interfering with everyone, using S117 as a general clobbering tool. Not one single person commented on it.
“In short, I can’t see how anyone can actually get away with smoking anywhere in a strata including its common property unless it’s in a hermetically sealed room. Am I right to think that, in both the examples I cite, the smokers are in breach of the NSW Strata Titles Act and can be asked to stop on the basis that it’s a ‘hazardous nuisance’ and interferes with my ‘enjoyment’? It sounds so deliciously simple.”
