Oh blimey, sorry if that came across the wrong way but in my experience there are people who do a lot of complaining and not much else. That is what I was saying, here you have an owner who on the one hand is demanding a number of things and on the other hand is protesting what she says are high levies.
Maybe the complex is a cesspit but from the information given it seems unlikely. Leaves do fall from trees and you can’t stop rubbish coming in from the street. The only thing I would suggest is that the bin guy be asked to wash out the bins, however the basis of the gripe is likely to be that the bins are near that owner’s door.
If you live in a house you will find that leaves blow on to your path and front doorstep and if that bothers you, then you either sweep them up or get someone to do it for you. In the latter case that will cost you money. That is the problem I have found with living in a strata scheme, people abdicate all responsibility. I have had one owner demand that we get a contractor to sweep up some leaves, which would have cost about $200. I got the broom and swept them up myself, there was no way she was doing it. The same owner thought she shouldn’t pay a special levy for some building works because she didn’t use that part of the common property. Go figure.
That is what I meant – I am not suggesting that certain standards shouldn’t be maintained.
