Thanks for your reply. But where does an EC stand when the area to be repaired can only be accessed through the unit in question? And if the owners don't express their oingoing concerns regarding this problem (infact, there has been nothing received by the EC in writing from these owners until 2 weeks ago about this outstanding problem) and the EC wanted to carry out repairs, what then?
The engineers report stated that this was a minor problem and that some of the issues raised by the owners (ie mould) would have been solved if they had practiced some home maintenance in this area. The owners however say it is a major problem causing major damage, but they only ever say so at the AGM. And they never have it listed on the agenda. Does an EC have to spoon feed its residents? Owners complain that the EC doesn't do anything. The owners in this complex have complained about the EC not fixing problems in common areas – problems these owners never made them aware of! Do EC members have to walk around a complex everyday looking for problems or should responsible adult residents who notice a problem (and walk past it day after day) actually tell someone so they can fix it?
