Hmm. One other point though.
Gazumping an incumbent EC is a once in a lifetime opportunity… They aren’t prepared for it so won’t prepare for it. But if you try and fail, you’ll never get the chance again.
Getting 75% of owners to back you for an EC spill mid year is often difficult though, and you may be better off holding your cards close to your chest and waiting for the next AGM, when you don’t have to put forward a motion in advance, since voting the new EC in is done every year.
At that AGM, you are looking to control 2 things: how many people are allowed on the EC (max is 9) and who is actually elected to the EC.
You may find that you don’t have the support to outvote the existing EC members, so then you focus on boosting the EC numbers to 6, 7 or 8 and fill the extra slots with people who support you, that way you can effectively control the voting at the ECM’s anyway. 😉
That’s exactly a friend of mine did with their Strata plan last year, and the 2 poor old people on the EC from the last 10 years who had manipulated things somewhat and driven roughshod over the owners, still got onto the EC again… but didn’t realise what had truly happened until they started to lose every single motion that they put forward…
It’s all a numbers game.
Hope that helps
