Hi

I have posted here a couple of times and cannot believe I am posting again!! The joys of strata living.

I recently attended my first AGM as a new owner in a block of four managed by a strata company which will reman unnamed. Prior to the meeting, we requested that the strata manager add several agenda items which all related to expenditure and work to common property.

At the meeting, three lot owners attended. The third did not attend and did not provide a proxy vote.

Four weeks after the meeting we started to chase up the minutes due to a dispute over who had agreed to pay for painting (whether it was to be split between lot owners or paid for solely by strata). When the minutes were received, none of the agenda items sent to the strata manager (with notice) were included, nor was there any record of the decisions we had made about expenditure.

Several weeks later, the lot owner who did not attend, made contact and alleged they did not receive notice of the AGM from the strata manager and did not agree with the decisions we had made (the ones which were minuted- the standard motions were minutes thankfully).

One of the owners who voted on several motions, decided to change their mind and side with the owner who did not attend.

We have asked the strata manager (and his manager) for a please explain several times but continue to be ignored.

My question is, do our decisions made and minuted – as voted by three owners, still stand? or is the whole process void?

Thank you
