    you can ask the strata manager to send the correspondence to all lot owners. Any document related to strata can be seen by any other lot owner.

    A “letter” has no force at all in enforcing bylaws. The process starts with a Notice to Comply. The OC needs to follow the procedure in the act exactly, else when you get to court the whole thing will be thrown out.

    The offending owner can choose to ignore the Notice to Comply, and the OC then needs to take it to NCAT for a judgement. Whilst many on this forum regard NCAT as a bit of a lottery, it will look at your claims and the defendants response and make a call.
    Im not sure that the ‘wrong’ type of plants or the state of the garden will be in your favour.
    Also be aware that a case ruled on in Early this year went against the OC because they were found to not be applying the bylaws equally to all owners.

    Im saying that the offender could point the finger back at you, and if your garden is non compliant you’ll be forced to come up to scratch.
