Enough of Strata

    Thanks for your suggestion Jimmy.

    The “New EC member” has now listed his unit for sale, but will have an input until he settles.

    We considered your first suggestion and concluded that if may be difficult to interest those Owners who traditionally do not attend in sufficient numbers to carry the day, and has less chance of success than the second suggestion.

    I contacted a couple of Strata Management on your second point.  The initial response (although not yet final) was:

    With this type of appointment, at the end of the term there is usually considerable ill feeling among the those involved (particularly if some were shown up as not doing things properly) and traditionally a small possibility that the Strata Manager appointed as Administrator is likely to be approved to continue as the Strata Manager.  (That is what I would assume would be the reason why someone would  assist in this matter would be looking for).

    In our case the SM agreement is on a 30 day termination status, however I expect the current SM will try and lock in a fixed term renewal since he has now been advised some Lot owners are not happy with the service. 

    I am advised an EGM will be held soon, which I understand will cover a By-Law changes related to damage to Solid Core door & Fire Door’s to be installed to Lots by owners / tenants, where it will be proposed the Owner be responsible for any damage.

    While I will try more SM’s I also must be realistic, and take into account the WIIFM  (What’s in it for me factor).

    Again, thanks for your suggestion (Winston).
