Is there a list of the types of issues that need a special, unopposed, and unanimous resolution rather than an ordinary resolution?

Two that I have found in the Unit Titles (Management) ACT are:

unanimous resolution is required to not take out building insurance
special resolution is required to grant a lot owner privileges relating to common property

what other issues require special or unopposed resolutions?

Of the top of my head, any resolution to adopt or amend or rescind an Owners Corporation rule requires a special resolution. Deciding to have more than seven members of the Executive Committee requires a special resolution.

I think deciding to dissolve the entire OC might be an unopposed resolution but that has not really come up as an issue where I am.

Download the latest version of the Unit Titles (Management) Act and do a text search for ‘special’, ‘unanimous’ and ‘unopposed’ and you could quickly compile your own list.
