Thanks for this.

The manager we are considering is offering a discount of the first year’s management fee, with management fee about $450 below other managers. Is there a catch I should be looking for or beware of ? For example are future management fees going to be much higher ?

The chairperson was the only unit owner amongst the eight of us who was willing to take the role.

Unfortunately the chairperson has acted recently without fairness, honesty and objectivity.

What do we do if no one wants to be a chairperson ?  Is there such a thing as an independent chairperson ?

Who would this be ?  the strata manager ?  How much they charge per hour ?

To clarify a vote has not been taken by the committee (all 8 uni owners) when I received an email from the strata manager stating the committee has stipulated that NBN cabling must go through the brick wall.

After this I sent an email to the strata manager stating a vote should be taken: Should the conduit NBN cabling be changed ? Yes or No. If Yes, which one of the following do you select:

i) paint the conduit
ii) reroute the NBN conduit through the brick exterior wall and interior wall through to the unit
iii) other option(s) to be specified

I would accept the majority vote.

This proposal has been accepted and the vote will happen

Thanks for this additional information.

For this case, the OCs registered their rules. So is there a website where you can read an OC’s rules ?

[Fromthenorth]

Thanks for this.

So can OCs rules say dogs are not allowed ie. is this legal ?

[Fromthenorth]

Thanks for this.

Another question. If a non-resident used the garage how would this affect the insurance premium paid by the body corporate ?

 

Also if the body corporate is concerned about security from non-residents, is there any binding by law or rule they can apply to prevent me giving the garage to a friend.

 

Regards
