Thanks for the reply Jimmy.
Allow me to clarify:
- The strata has 50 lots;
- The project is to fence off an area around visitor car spaces. The logic of which has not been fully explained. That is: why the fencing needs to be done and what options (quotes) are to be considered. Given the SC likes to provide work to mates as contractors (eg architect, landscape designer etc) in addition to the firm presumably supplying and installing the fence, it is impossible to guess what will be the all up cost;
- No quotes were supplied so far by the SC in the notice of meeting for any part, let alone the whole job; and
- Historically, the SC has asked for a blanket approval to do something (in one case, develop a section of the common property and sell it to for a few owners, who later changed their minds about buying it) and the SC did so without providing quotes for the job. The OC was then left with the bill.
