      My first post here. At around 7pm last night, an otherwise very quiet Sunday night, a resident of our old block of 30 units, who is also a passenger on the Executive Committee, started using a hammer drill to put something up on his balcony.

      I wanted to check the rules before I took this up with him or the strata manager or the larger Executive Committee and was amazed to find our local council would allow this from 8am until 8pm on a Sunday. Possibly worse, our by-laws (and other ‘model by-laws’ I found on the net) DO have the paragraph about noise and peaceful enjoyment etc. but this doesn’t mention, specifically, building noise or ‘home handyman’ noise.

      This seems to be somewhat anachronistic in a strata with so many people living in such close proximity to each other and most enjoying a quiet Sunday night.

      Is there anything I might do if this EC member gets his power tool out again?
