We have several issues that we (several units) want to discuss at the AGM.

The AGM is on the 10th June 2014. Today we received the Agenda topics in the post with a note that not topics not listed will be discussed.

We did not receive a letter asking for any agenda topics that we wanted added and have not had a presiding offer for a few months, so the strata manager didn’t speak to anyone to ask for any other topics from him/her.

Should we have been asked (via letter/phone) for any topics?

Can we ask the strata manager to amend the Agenda and add the two extra items?

Im in South Australia.

 

Thanks.

Whilst I didn’t see any mention of it in the SA Act, it would have been good practice for the Manager to ask for any motions from all owners to be put to the Meeting.  Ours in NSW does so every year in plenty of time for the meeting.

The SA Act provides for notices of general meetings to go out at least 14 days prior to the meeting, so in your case it’s too late for anything to be added for a 10 June Meeting.  I can only see it being appropriate for any extra motions to be considered at a later meeting with the requisite notice being given.

Regards

Dave

I actually emailed the strata manager after I posted in the forum.

He added the additional meeting items and sent out an amended agenda a few days later.

He is usually not very helpful, but was on this occasion.
