Thank you Sir Humphrey and Jimmy for your advice. It is important that we are always compliant with the NSW Strata Scheme ManagementAct 2015 as one slip up on our part would ensure that this developer would use that against us. We took a vote at one of our Owners Corporation General Meetings and then received a letter from his solicitor stating that we did not vote in accordance with the Act which requires a special resolution. The By Laws ( very close to the Model By Laws) have gone to 3 Owners Corporation Meetings and have been defeated each time by the Developer even though every other owner attended the meetings and voted in favour. We will take your advice, take the By Laws to a special meeting of the Owners Corporation and when it is defeated ( which the developer has promised any new By Laws will be defeated by him) then retain a Strata solicitor to represent us at the Tribunal. Hopefully the Tribunal will find in our favour and in any case we will aim to have the developers 8 registered by laws struck out because they are discriminatory. Thanks again .
