Gotta go … I have to drag my bag of garbage out to the landing, share it with all in my SP, you know … and let someone else take it to the garbage bin.
Very droll. The thing is, the EC has access to information and communications that the individual owner doesn’t have. The EC can also instruct the strata manager to perform basic functions, like writing to people. The EC can also set the tone for a building by helping people who are being treated unfairly and hammering the perpetrators.
In this case, the EC has chosen to wash its hands and do nothing when they could, for instance, have sent an email out to all owners (something the individual owner can’t do) telling whoever owns it to move the car.
So the EC has broken the contract of cooperation that should exist in strata buildings. The problem is dropped in the too-hard basket and it’s every man for himself. If that’s their attitude, then stuff them.
My view, if you don’t want to make your community a better place, then you are on the EC for your own selfish reasons. Please, no more about poor volunteers – they only have to say no when they call for nomionations at the AGM – and if they don’t want to help their neighbours then that’s exactly what they should do.
