Normally, for a by-law that will only benefit one owner, they will pay the full fare on this. But if this is the first by-law of many identical subsequent by-laws, the owners corp really should carry a lot of the burden since everyone is going to benefit one way or the other.
By the way, if you didn’t agree in writing to pay the lawyer’s bill, I would tell them to stick it.
