    Thanks Jimmy,

    I will attend (probably with my solicitor) because the OC will have theirs there.

    The AGM is due any day. I’ve asked what the anniversary date is so that the  AGM takes place within 11 or 13  months from the first AGM,  and I’ve also asked why this is an EGM (which costs the OC for the attendance of the SM) and not an AGM – as usual no response, except to be told a response will come from their solicitor “following” the EGM…… seems like the democratic “vote” to engage the solicitor in this matter is a foregone conclusion!

    Two of the units have sold recently, but the 42 day standard settlement period has not elapsed as yet, and won’t have done by the time the meeting is convened.

    I’m expecting the new owners to attend the EGM, because, as you no doubt know, a NSW Law Society standard form sales contract for a unit states that prospective owners need to be aware of an EGM in order to attend and be able to vote (in place of the outgoing owner) on paying a special levy that will be payable after the sale has been finalised.

    Hopefully the new owners will bring a “changing of the guard” to the EC and all the ridiculous amounts of Owners Corporation money spent on legal fees by the current EC/OC to contest orders that I have been successful in, can stop (it is the Secretary of the EC who has sold one unit).

    My solicitor has said “you only fight the battles you know you can win”, I wish my current OC/EC used the same mantra!
