Can I please get further clarification about having a special resolution to say “no” for this to be rejected?
My point is that this might need a special resolution by the lot owner to have the awning repaired under strata insurance if it is not part of common property. They would have to get 75 percent of owners voting at a general meeting for that to be approved.
If the OC has already said no, it’s up to the lot owner to challenge that, not incumbent on the OC to reiterate its decision. I’m curious to know how the strata manager can decide that lot property is covered by strata insurance, unless it is deemed to be a fixture.
And yes, failure to maintain the awning should be a contribution factor in paying for its repair or replacement. But has anyone contacted the insurer about this? If they are prepared to pay, and there is no impost on the other owners, why fight it?
