The agent can’t arrange special levy without the consent of the major stake holders of the scheme. Remember the agent works for you not the other way round.
Major stake holders? A special levy has to be approved by a majority of owners voting in person or by proxy at a properly constituted general meeting.
If nobody in the scheme has the desire or the gumption to organise an AGM then someone should apply to NCAT for the statutory appointment of a strata manager.
Otherwise, strata managers can only be appointed at a general meeting. This strata scheme is a mess and a group of owners needs to get together and acquaint themselves with strata law and the way things work. Click here to download the Fair Trading handbook.
Also, as Digby suggests, get a competent strata professional to help you sort things out.
