Of the 19 lots in our strata plan, only 10 lots have their own water meter.
The units block with 6 lots has only one meter as has the commercial block with 3 lots.
Our previous strata manager would divide the 2 meter readings by 6 and 3 resp. , then sent water levy notices to the lot owners and levies so collected would be offset against the water rates accounts for the 2 meters.
Our current manager has advised us that this practice is illegal and won’t comply with the EC request to continue past practice.
There must be lots of strata plans where there are no separate water meters for each lot.
How do other Owner Corporations recoup the cost of water usage by lot owners in such circumstances?
