Thanks Hotwombat.
I am happy to be corrected.
Sometimes things are not necessary but they can be instead, ‘best practice’.
I have had responses from BCCM along similar lines.
I guess your Lot Owners have to work out what type of body corporate that you would prefer to be in, and what the motivations are for their actions.
Calling for additional nominations is no doubt a courtesy to allow anyone else who may be interested to nominate.
At all body corps and AGMs that I have been involved in it has been standard best practice to call for nominations from the floor for unfilled positions.
