First re the Notice to Comply, to what is the resident supposed to comply?
One of the basic bylaws is that no-one should behave in such a way as to disturb the quiet enjoyment of other residents in their units. Check the bylaws.
The trouble presumably arises on fine evenings when everyone wants their windows open to allow ventilation and wait for the cool night air.
It sounds like a single male complaining, a woman would know about snoring 2 feet away and already dealt with it.
Has the writer talked to other neighbours? Has the person complained about talked to other neighbours? In both cases the other 22? Is the person complained about an owner or a tenant? Need more info.
It’s normal for people to enjoy sitting in their gardens and talking.
I would ask for proof in the form of audio recordings, at least three on different dates, anyone can write a complaint alleging anything.
The complainant bought a townhouse for a reason, presumably expecting to have other people living there, they can be noisy too!
Tell him to try wearing earplugs, or plugging in an earplug from a radio, soon sends me to sleep.
We are an elderly couple combined ages 160yrs living in a strata unit in Sydney, on a main road, and while my hearing is good, have got used to the traffic sounds.
