      I have recently had a broken window sash cord and have been informed by the Exec representative of our (self-managed) Owners’ Corp that I must pay for it. The Exec representative has acknowledged that broken window sash cords are indeed the Owners’ Corp responsibility as per the legislation for post 1974 strata buildings but claims that unit owners have previously agreed to bear the costs themselves. There seems to be no written evidence to this effect. What process does the Owners’ Corp need to undertake to divert from this legislation and shift financial responsibility from themselves to individual owners ? Does it require an addition to the by-laws ? formal discussion and agreement at an AGM ? Thanks in advance for your advice !

    PLEASE ... If your property is not in NSW, mention its location (state). Don't identify companies or individuals by name. Don't mention or promote your company or services. Keep acronyms and initials to a minimum. Please, don’t use “quote” unless there is a specific point to which you wish to refer, then highlight (define) that specific passage before you click on "quote". Otherwise just use reply. THANKS.
