…and PeterC who like me, are no doubt hoping for a great 2013 where we’ll possibly see some new Strata Legislation (in NSW)…
The NSW changes I would most like to see are the adoption of the changes made in the ACT legislation, particularly s. 23 and s.108(3)(d), which are essentially my submission to the review of the Act turned into legal style. It was my first and only serious attempt to influence a review of legislation and the success was very gratifying.
s. 23 … An owners corporation for a units plan may, if authorised by an ordinary resolution … approve the installation of sustainability or utility infrastructure on the common property… (then follows lots of detail).
108(3) An amendment to the rules of an owners corporation has no effect to the extent that it results in the rules— …(d) prohibiting or restricting the installation, operation or maintenance of sustainability or utility infrastructure.
May you all have a Merry Christmas and find ways to use the collective power of strata titled properties for good rather than evil!
