Further to my last post, the strata manager asking for proxies to be given to her is counter productive for her purposes as she will not be able to use these to vote on the motion regarding her appointment.
SSMA – Schedule 2 Clause 11(7A) states;
(7A) Other limits on exercise of proxy
A vote by a proxy who is a caretaker, an on-site residential property manager or a strata managing agent is invalid if it would obtain or assist in obtaining a pecuniary interest for, or confer or assist in conferring any other material benefit on, the proxy.
