    Approvals for major changes done on a nod and a wink can cause horrendous problems for strata schemes down the track, mainly because in the absence of a by-law apportioning responsibility for future maintenance to the lot owner, it falls to the owners corp by default.

    If there is major work being done without permission, seek an interim order from the tribunal to have it stopped until proper approval is sought and given.
