The oc claimed the equipment belongs to another lot owner, but they (oc) arranged the installation when I was out! Sect 62 was only mentioned as a reason to allow it to stay on my balcony as it was the only place (private property) it could be located.
I argued that it was an unauthorised upgrade paid for by the oc, which was not required until now (scheme was registered in 2002).
The works were approved by the ex-commies (by paper, unsure what this meant) who ordered the works to be carried out to my balcony (during work hours) without a resolution at a general meeting or my permission.
The CTTT adjudicator said written permission was not needed under Sect 62 or Sect 65 to enter onto and install the equipment as it was part of the ocs maintenance requirements. I let it go as the CTTT seemed to be more interested in not making an order to relocate it, but lately it has been acting up with leaking, loud banging noises. The dog was also burned by it a few times, as well as my wife’s friend who sometimes smokes out there (terrible habit)!
I spoke to a neighbour / other owner who argued that I costed them money to install it in the first place… I am lucky they said! I do need to get it all cleared up before I sell though, it might devalue my property considerably!
