Thanks, But what if the owners want to do this – to be fair to each other as the ground floor flat is exactly the same size and cost as the top floor. Can they vote to create a by law to do this?
What is fairer than following the rules that were in place and known by each Owner when they bought their strata property – that the cost of common property repairs would be shared according to UEs?
Extra questions:
1) How much variation is there in UEs given that “all lots are identical in size”?
2) Does every lot have an “east window” or is this a staggered installation?
3) If the installation is staggered, then any special levy could be staggered. All lots could pay their UE-based share for the “east windows”, next quarter all lots could pay their UE-based share for the “west windows”. This would actually spread the financial burden over time better than each lot paying for their own windows in full when they get them.
