In the last three years I had approval for A/c and an outdoor cover approved at a general meeting Last week i received a letter stating that i now need an engineers report stating the cover is wind proof, even though all the stats were provided at the time of approval. The SC now wants a DA for the compressor that sits behind a wall so invisible to street frontage and the council advised me it was not required when i applied for approval.
Is this legal that a by law already approved needs more reports. There has not been any queries or issue with either item so difficult to understand .
I feel that I am being singled out as numerous other items are in place throughout the scheme without approval for years and to date no other person has had a letter
thank you

You have been singled out.
If your AC was approved then that’s its. The committee can’t take a second bite. If they missed something then it’s their problem .
Id sit tight and see what they do next. They certainly can’t remove your AC. They would need an order from NCAT to do anything.
let them instigate the fight, which seems they will lose.It is wrong that there are no repercussions for giving the wrong advice or directions. The owner has already been penalized, especially if they have forked out money they did not need to. Did the Strata Committee act on their own or on the advice of the Strata Manager? Surely as a professional Strata Manager, you can’t just say “oops” and all is forgotten.
