Hi Stevecro / Rebekah,
This sounds like it’s more of a police issue now from your last email. It’s probably easier to call into your local station and ask them their opinion or options for your safety.
Everything you have said (last post) amounts to criminal behaviour, and with all due respect, the strata manager has a lot to answer for!
Maybe Whale could advise you legally, but I would ask the Strata Manager to provide a ‘legal basis’ for the allegations made in their original notice / letter to you, before you take any further / legal action.
They may wish to provide you with the original complaint letters without a sect 108 search, but fundamentally they will need to provide a written response with reasons as to why the letter was drafted by them, and if it was on behalf of your owners corporation in the first place!
Whilst I understand the SM has no obligation per say, they wouldn’t want to be held personally accountable or liable should anything bad happen to you or your family as a result of their poor actions. Put them on notice at least, that way you acknowlegde their actions in promoting, or in this case lack of action in curbing the nuisance inflicted on you and your guests by other residents within the scheme.
Either way, I’m a lot less forgiving than everyone on here by the sounds of it, due to my experience with shitty strata managers, but this is not good at all.
Stay strong, whatever you decide to do, remember that ‘your safety’ is much more important, so protect yours as best you can, and by whatever means necessary.
