Just to be clear…. when you say ” at the last Strata Meeting the Committee proposed ..” I am assuming that this was a motion on the Agenda for a General Meeting of Owners and we are not talking about meetings of the strata committee.
Reasonable Notice should be given to Owners quite separately to including it in a Motion on an agenda – what if the Motion was not passed ?! Fire inspections are mandatory
That Notice process would at least open the door to some discussion around the logistics of gaining entry.
Right to charge for non access ? As Jimmy notes, we are talking about passing on charges from the Fire Inspection Contractor for having to return a second time.
It is doubtful whether the owners corporation has the power to resolve to pass any costs of this sort onto owners without there being a by-law in place entitling it to do so. Does your scheme have such an empowering by- law ?
