Hi.. this is a great thread. We have an owner, recently replaced on the EC, who claims that the new EC is not permitted to contact her by mail directly for “privacy” reasons, and is demanding that official notices must be sent to the Strata Manager, who will then forward them on to her. Oh, and we’ll also be required to add an additional four days to the notice period to account for the mail being forwarded.. and pay for the additional time and postage required by the SM!
A tangential question on privacy: Former EC member claiming right to take documents from a legal file recently returned by the OC’s solicitor. Says the documents are privileged, since they were originally obtained by the EC member and provided to the solicitor for their research.
Any ideas how to navigate this one?
Thanks much
