    Sasha – to clarify a little further, whilst the NSW Legislation is silent of the subject of to what decisions a special resolution is necessary, so far as I’m aware that method of determining the outcome of a vote applies to Motions about Common Property dealings (e.g. easements, sub-divisions, exclusive use privileges to Owner/s), about adding to or amending the By-Laws of the Plan, about whether to waive the prescribed interest on overdue levies or to allow the prescribed discount for those paid early (both 10%), and about whether to permit changes, alterations, or additions to the Common Property of the Plan by the Owners Corporation (e.g. cement rendering a building) or by individual Owners (e.g. when proposing renovations).

    As Jimmy T mentioned (post #3) Agenda Motions on the above need to be worded “THAT the Owners Corporation specially resolves to ………“, and additionally, the Minutes need to clearly show the total unit entitlements (UOE) of those in attendance and entitled to vote (both personally and by proxy), the nature of the vote on each special resolution (e.g. 44 UOE in favour / 13 UOE against), and the outcome of the vote (i.e. 77.2%).
