The wording of your Plan’s By-Law adds no value to the above so I’m wondering if, despite your Solicitor’s reviewing the Strata Report, your Plan’s Pet By-Law is properly Registered and therefore shown as a “dealing” on the Plan’s Strata Title Document?
Whale – Apologies, I’ve quoted the wrong by-law. We are under the Strata Scheme Management Act 1996 Schedule 1, so the applicable by-law is By-Law 16 from the Model By-Laws. It’s almost the same as what I quoted above, except no fish are allowed without permission either.
I can confirm that there was nothing additional on the Strata Plan’s Title Document regarding a change to the by-law regarding animals – I reviewed this myself, both at purchase and when we were gathering our evidence for the adjudication process. There was an additional by-law registered and noted on the Title Document, but it did not concern the pet by-law at all – from memory I think it was around parking in the visitor’s parking spaces.
