Can common property be assigned to an individual lot that has the only access to that common property?
The CP is currently a garden (which was maintained by the OC until the Lot owner chose to manage) but now the lot owner wants to put in a 1.4m deep pool?

what majority of Lot Owners are required for such approval?

will The improved ‘new Lot’ with the pool mean that the EU’s be reevaluated? If so at whose cost??

Common property cannot be assigned . It requires an exclusive use by law that is passes as a special resolution.

The OC can’t increase the unit entitlements to cover this as the lot property remains the same.

The OC could seek rent for the use of the land as the lot value is increased with the exclusive e use of the land and the pool

Alternatively the lot owner could purchase the common property from the OC.

There is no clear cut answer for you and I suggest discussions with a strata lawyer may find a suitable option.

PLEASE ... If your property is not in NSW, mention its location (state). Don't identify companies or individuals by name. Don't mention or promote your company or services. Keep acronyms and initials to a minimum. Please, don’t use “quote” unless there is a specific point to which you wish to refer, then highlight (define) that specific passage before you click on "quote". Otherwise just use reply. THANKS.
