Yes Jimmy, very interesting. Sect 41 of the Act uses the word ‘appoint’ with regards to officers, not the word ‘elect’
Part 2, Clause 11, Sub-clause 6 of the legislation says
(6) If a ballot for the election of a person as chairperson, secretary or treasurer of the committee is required, the election is to be conducted by a show of hands of persons at the meeting.
This is distinct from election to the sc itself.
Also interesting that Sect 41, subclause 2 of the Act states
(2) The chairperson, secretary and treasurer of the strata committee are also, respectively, the chairperson, secretary and treasurer of the owners corporation.
That is, you don’t vote for these positions for the OC, it is an automatic by-product of being elected too the position on the SC
