Reply To: By -law enforcing OC to pay compensation

Thank you Jimmy -T for your prompt response ,

I have previously wrote a polite request to the OC or strata committee prior to AGM 2018 and requested detailed information Special by-law 1 “compensation ” to be provided before or at AGM 18. …As you suggested above. Unfortunately as the recipient of my correspondence was the secretary / treasurer ( owner lot AA) the committee has never responded  to correspondence prior to or at AGM 2018 . In fact the EC has never tabled my letter in correspondence or responded to date.

The EC committee has never recorded or distributed Agenda or  Minutes to Lot owners in about 5 years . Having no other option I wrote an open letter to lot owners prior to AGM 18 to inform owners to discuss Sp By-law 1 ” Lot AA compensation “at AGM .However unfortunately any lot owner that asked  questions was intimidated and yelled at by the sec/treas ( owner AA and auditor) and he caused the the entire AGM 18 to be brought to commotion and an abrupt close with no answers. The Strata Manager was present but ineffective.The sec/treasurer said it was “his private business and no business of lot owners” . I know several owners who questioned By law 1 back in 2017 were informed in that it was a new pump room and it had to be installed in Lot AA ie recently…. which has is factually untrue, and pump room is on common property.  At 2018 the owner lot AA again repeated it was a recent addition to his property .

There are many problems uncovered by my strata records search . The ‘ committee member/owner who proposed the by law as owner lot AA and committee member 2017 was NOT in fact the owner Lot AA in 2017 and did not have proxy from actual recorded owner lot AA . He was a Tennant in 2017. In fact he self nominated as an owner of lot AA since 2014 but only became owner March 2018.

In theory Lot owners have rights to request information but in the real world the committee will never respond or address an issue if they have what might  be  perceived as a conflict of interest.How do you establish who owns the pump room ? And who decided on the level of compensation ?

What part of the SSMA Act section 148 0r 150 to ask for decision   Is it a common property by law ? thus should have has signature of each owner paying compensation ? Or is it just unjust 150 ?
