You could put a motion to a general meeting. General meeting decisions over-ride the EC. I would emphasise that the situation of your unit is unique – smaller balcony but access to the side wall, therefore your proposal could not be a precedent for others. Indeed, I would include it in the motion that this approval is not to be a precedent for others since they can use their balconies.
I would sound people out to make sure you would have the numbers first.
Many thanks for your reply Peter, since the AGM is in March I may have difficulty as I promised the tenants an AC over summer.
I do know that turnouts at the AGM are minimal and it may end up being proxy voted.
Your point around the fact that it simply cannot be a precedent for others is what I intend to raise.
I put some thought into it over the weekend and I will put forward a request to my SM to take this matter to the Tribunal.
Have you had any personal experience with going down this road?
