Our 5 person EC has a current issue with a member of the EC who wants to expand his driveway even though its common property and the other 3 members of the committee being the chair of the committee and 2 others have had a majority vote and wish to hold the meeting at a particular date.

The secretary  and i can not attend on that date and the others are unwilling to budge. The strata manager says the meeting can legally go ahead but how much of this is actually true? Don’t you need the secretary  to be present? The main issue is that we don’t want to be outvoted and keep dealing with this driveway issue.

Hope someone can help.

As you have recommended the issue is now going to an OC vote despite in our EC meeting the secretary having the majority votes via proxy but the chairman deciding this is BS according to her and causing havoc.

How does the secretary have the majority of votes by proxy at an EC meeting? Are you saying that the secretary has proxy votes from other EC members who could not attend, which were allowed by a majority vote at the EC? That is the only way proxies count at an EC meeting. Proxy votes from other owners who are not EC members do not count at EC meetings.  

Yes the secretary had the majority of votes of the EC members who could not attend.
