MickiB – what your Executive Committee (E/C) has done on behalf of the Owners Corporation is to alter the Common Property, or maybe in the opinion of the Chairman to improve the Common Property.
The E/C is quite entitled to do that …… provided it first puts it’s proposal as a Special Resolution to a General Meeting of the Owners Corporation, where a minimum 75% of those Owners in attendance in person or by proxy need to vote in favour in order to pass the proposal, or conversely 25% can vote it down.
Refer your E/C Chairman to clause 65a of the NSW Strata Schemes Management Act (1996), and politely ask when the Secretary plans to prepare the DA, to convene the General Meeting, and when the pergola is going to put back in its original location in the interim.
