Unless the roof is the responsibility of the lot owner – and this would be highly unusual – then the Owners Corp has to foot the bill. It’s their roof and guttering and should have made sure the leaves were removed regularly to avoid this kind of incident.
It’s just another example of how penny-pinching and negligence leads to greater costs and, inevitably, finger pointing and shirking of responsibility.
