Wirihana – your original post mentioned that you were “keeping” your dog on the Plan for only one or two days per week, and I incorrectly interpreted that was on a casual basis.
Now you say that it’s been one or two days (or more?) per week for four months, so clearly you’re in breach of the By-Law and as I foreshadowed you should have at least advised your Owners Corporation (O/C) that you’re keeping the dog on your Lot, and indemnify the O/C and other Owners as required.
You’d be well advised not to become involved in semantics and to accept that you’ve done the wrong thing, and that’s particularly important as you’ve now been issued with a Notice to Comply.
With regard to the eviction of a tenant for what I assume was a similar breach of the By-Law, the delay was more than likely due to the fact that and O/C cannot evict tenants (mores the pitty) and it therefore had to prevail upon the Owner / Landlord or their Agent to travel the convoluted route necessary in order to initiate that.
