Re: Bully Chairman

Thanks for your lengthy and informative post.  Events have now overtaken me. Since I wrote the post yesterday, I discovered that the AGM has been secretly set for next Monday, 27 March with no mailed copies to owners (which we have always gotten in the past), so people who are not computer literate and don’t use the strata web site, have no idea that an AGM has been called.  A notice was put up on the notice board late last night, but it is hidden away down a passageway. The first item of business is the election of the strata committee, whereas it is usually the last item. They have also included a form so that only a committee member can nominate another committee member. Seeing as I wasn’t consulted, or even advised (as an owner) that the AGM had been moved forward six weeks, I now feel I couldn’t possibly work with the other committee members. The Chairman obviously feels very threatened to use such tactics and has left me feeling very demoralised! My only question is – why wouldn’t the strata manager be notifying all members of the strata committee about such an important matter – not to mention other owners?
