I live in a two lot strata scheme from hell. The other owner has sequestered the common area in front of their villa for exclusive use. They have installed a 1500 high grey colorbond front boundary fence which is in complete contrast to the style of the two lots. It replaces a 1500 high paling fence.
The compulsory managing agent has given approval for the front boundary fence which replaced a 1500 paling fence because an AGM in 1989 stated that the owners of each lot be responsible for the common area in front of their lot. There was no approval given for the original fence in any minutes of meetings There is no special by-law or registration of same regarding the exclusive use of the common property.
Does the lot owner have the right to build this boundary fence without permission and having a special by-law for exclusive use of common property?
