Are you concerned about non financial committee members voting at committee meetings?
I am concerned that they are misusing their positions for their own advantage
Are you concerned about the arrears collection process?-
This has been tabled at the AGM and I will ask the SM to implement
Is the secret ballot vote for committee members a secret ballot at a general meeting?
Previously this was done at the AGM. This SM said it is not on the agenda and we can do it by email. The nominations were also done by email.
Is the secret ballot vote a vote for general positions (and specific positions are decided at the committee meeting immediately following the general meeting) or is the secret ballot vote for specific positions at the general meeting?
The nominations were for specific positions
Can you provide an example of the Motion where a secret ballot was called for?
This is the first time – for office bearer positions
How many committee members are permitted at you scheme?
3 ( Chairman, Secy, Treasurer) & 3 members
If you missed out on a position do you think that you may have a better chance if the number of permitted positions was increased (bearing in mind that the maximum limit under the Act must not be exceeded.) NB: You are able to raise a Motion for resolution at a general meeting to increase the numbers of committee members if the maximum limit has not been reached.
We are only 14 units. The other 8 owners are not interested.
What is the process at your scheme for issuing a Notice to Comply with a by-law? Is it by general meeting approval or has the authority been delegated to the strata committee, or has it been delegated to the strata Manager? A notice must be issued before any further action can be taken to enforce the by-laws.
Two warning letters and then notice to comply. The SM agreed to this in his first appointment meeting. And the other committee members did not disagree. But now I get the feeling that they ring him separately and say they do not want to do this. So now he is asking for a majority vote. Why do by laws need a majority vote. It does not make sense.
