    If one member of the committee has given up an exceptional amount of their time and energy for the greater good of everyone else, why shouldn’t they get some sort of retrospective reward?

    That said, I wonder about those who come to the AGM with a detailed account of their hours spent etc etc.  If you want paid, say so up front and let people at least know that’s what you’re thinking (regardless of whether or not they intend to comply with your wishes).  

    And be careful that the EC’s ‘generosity’ isn’t just creating a precedent for future payments all round. 

    By the way, I have heard of an Owners Corporation Chair who gets more than $100,000 a year in ‘consultancy’ fees for ‘advising’ the EC on matters related to their strata scheme.  Make of that what you will.
