I am asking for suggestions on the best way to stop a long term committee member for recurrent targeting of residents on common property. Its the same member who patrols and orders residents ( mostly tenants) to stop childrens noise , throwing things at them, dogs. walking on lawns, accusing them of leaving rubbish without any evidence. There was a short reprieve when she was not on the SC but is back! The current SC seem to humour her as diligent!
thank you

Are you an owner? If so, get together with enough other owners and don’t vote her in next time! If she was unbearable before, then I’m guessing she got back on the Committee because no one else put their hand up for the job. If you don’t want her on the Committee, you need to be prepared to take on the job if no one else wants it. In the meantime, if she physically assaults someone or their property, that’s a Police matter. If her behaviour is sufficiently out of line that you suspect a serious mental health issue, you could ask the Police to do a welfare check. That might give her reason to consider how her behaviour is affecting others. Then there is also the right of residents to peaceful enjoyment of their properties. That is something you could raise with the strata manager.

That seems to be a bit over the top. This sounds like a self-important busibody rather than a physical assault risk. The law allows a majority of owners to vote to remove a committee member from the committee at an EGM. Just proposing and seeking support for such an action may be enough to curb her more excessive behaviour. Have a look at this from our sponsors Bannerman Lawyers.

She’s throwing stuff at people. That’s a bit more than being a busybody.

Depends what she’s throwing.
