    Thanks so much everyone for your help. Lady P, the motion I raised was this:

    that the lift be upgraded or fully replaced without delay and a date for completion be confirmed.

    And here’s what we have on the lift so far:

    1. 11 feedback forms out of 19 units from owners/tenants complaining about the lift;
    2. A very recent quote from the original lift company to fully replace the lift for $210k, which will be fully compliant (as new car size will allow medical stretcher into the lift) and energy efficient;
    3. Email recommendations from a qualified lift consultant on recommendation of full lift replacement;
    4. Emails from two SC members saying that spare parts are increasingly hard to source and that current service and operation is not satisfactory and a major overhaul should be carried out as soon as is practical;
    5. Service dockets from our current lift maintenance company indicating the lift controller needs replacing;
    6. A recent report from a highly qualified lift expert recommending a particular company carry out upgrade works on the lift. This was tabled at our AGM in September.

    What do you reckon?
