Thank you Simone and Mr Strata.
I have previously been on the EC but am not currently. I DO want to be 'a part of the community'.
Call me idealistic but I can't see why, what I believe one of the fundamental aspects of strata living which is protected by the Act: that you don't mess with Common Property without proper permission, can be so blatantly ignored and gotten away with.
The EC members I mentioned have not and I bet will not make themselves aware of the by-laws and their duties as EC members. They are there purely for self-interest. And there is a general 'laissez faire' and 'live-and-let-live' prevailing attitude amongst the EC, which is fine and may even be desirable, but this means many important issues are ignored.
There must be a polite way, short of going to mediation at the OFT that they can be encouraged to do things properly, since they put their hand up to be on the EC. And point out the conflict of interest when they are selfishly and greedily breaking the most fundamental by-laws.
