At the last AGM, the question of parking on common property came up again. This time however there was a disclaimer at the beginning of the AGM Minutes:
“Where this document refers to an Owners Corporation (OC), it can be taken to refer to an
Australian Company (ACN) for Stratum and Company Title Properties”. (My italics)
The Carparking under General Business then says:
There is no parking on common property unless permission is granted by the service company. 8
out of 24 owners do not have a car park on title, owners can approach council for a booklet to park
in the street.
This was in response to the Minutes -however, will probably be ignored:
This cannot be decided at an AGM. The Service Agreement of 55 Haines Street, “runs for the term
of 999 years”
Eight Owners had until this AGM consent to park on common property, the denial to park on
common property should lead to arbitration as discussed in the Service Agreement – Clause 9
… “to be followed if the Board of Directors’ consent is required and the Owner
believes it is unreasonably or unnecessarily withheld or refused.”
I did have to type out the photocopied Service Agreement so that I could get to relevant points quickly!
