There seem to be some questions to ask. Is it really in your property or is there an easement of some sort on the title? I would have a look at the unit plan. Where I am there are areas people think are their private gardens but are actually common property on the unit plan. If it is on your lot how did it get there if it is not servicing your unit? If it is servicing the common property or multiple units any owner would have an interest in getting the leak fixed to save a big water bill. If it is the responsibility of the owners corporation but the leak is damaging your property you could point out that you could make a claim against the owners corporation. How do other owners get to use the tap if it is on your lot? There are restrictions on entering a lot without permission (I assume for NSW-there are in the ACT).
