I have a further question relating to the large tree in our complex. We are located in WA.

Is removing a large tree and grinding out the stump classified as alteration to common property or merely gardening?

The removal of this tree has never been mentioned in any Council of Owner meeting agenda, and only surfaced with a mention in the meeting minutes.

The budget allocation has been made to ‘gardening’ with very small print in a side column referencing ‘removal of car park tree’ which is ambiguous as there are a few trees in the car park.

If removing the large tree is classified as alteration to common property then should it have had a particular motion to address the matter on the agenda rather than being hidden away in the general operating budget?

However at this AGM a motion to amend by laws failed as a Sufficient Quorum was not present (only 9 out of 19 lots represented).

Would the same sufficient quorum be needed to approve the removal of tree (assuming it is alteration to common property) rather than the quorom present at AGM that approved the budget with this item listed as ‘gardening’?

Thank you in advance for all help and advice you can offer.

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.
