As a starting point I would appreciate your opinion on what I must do to raise at the AGM various issues which I do not understand and/or am not convinced are necessary (unwarranted expense).
My preference would be to raise them at the AGM without prior notification – for reasons somewhat unique to our property.
Well there‘s a problem right away. You can make a decision on anything at an AGM that isn’t on the agenda. You can discuss what you like (at the chair’s discretion) but unless it’s on the agenda, any vote taken on the mater would be invalid.
However, can I suggest you take a look at the SCA’s excellent free online executive committee training course. I’m sure you will find it enlightening, informative and helpful. It will also make you better informed than 95 percent of people living in strata.
