NSW. So we had an AGM scheduled for a couple of weeks ago. 17 votes were in the room for the AGM, The Strata manager said she had proxies in her possession but did not reveal how many. She said we would wait half an hour to see if more turned up. No one did. We suspected a choreographed cancellation. The SM said we would not get a Quorum at this time of the year for another AGM.
Just to clarify what ScotlandX has said above. The general meeting should not have been adjourned, it should have proceeded with those present declared a quorum after half an hour. Your strata manager either doesn’t know basic strata law or she is deliberately misleading you.
If you think she is in cahoots with a dysfunctional committee, I would start with a complaint to Fair Trading (who will do nothing) and an action at NCAT to have the strata manager removed under Section 72 of the Act, in both cases using these events as evidence.
