Couldn’t agree more, Lady P. The by-law is a mish-mash trying to cover too many bases and ends up covering none. I would have been very comfortable with the Member rejecting it because of its content rather than its intent.
So what next. Is there a by-law out there that’s bullet-proof?
Or do we have to think about owners from a number of buildings suing their local councils in a class action for not enforcing their own laws?
Hmmm … now there’s a thought.
