Hi Lyn,
We understand how important it is for owners to be able to keep their pets, especially when they have done all that is reasonable to ensure that they are complying with the by-laws in their strata community.
Section 48 of the Strata Schemes Management Act 1996 outlines the steps to make an amendment effective –
(1) An amendment or repeal of a by-law or, a new by-law, has no force or effect until:
(a) the owners corporation has lodged a notification, in the form approved under the Real Property Act 1900 , in the Registrar-General’s office, and
(b) the Registrar-General has made an appropriate recording of the notification in the folio of the Register comprising the common property.
(2) A notification cannot be lodged in the Registrar-General’s office more than 2 years after the passing of the resolution for the amendment, repeal or new by-law.
Kind regards,
Simone Balsara
Lawyer
