      Our first AGM was in October 2018. There is still no AGM for the last year, I was told back in December it would be February but there has been no update.

      There are major defects that are currently being inspected in preparation of a warranty claim.

      I notice that a committee member is selling their property, I wonder if those are related. Indeed there was no mention of any of the committee meetings that decided on action for the major defects when I got my strata report.

       

      What should I do here? Everything about this strata committee and management has been unacceptably secretive, and incompetent, so I was really hoping to get on the committee asap and find out what is happening, and didn’t want to cause a stink before that…but I feel like I might have to.

        The law currently says you must have an AGM in each financial year (not on the anniversary of the previous one).  So, theoretically, you could have AGMs 23 months apart – July of year x and June of year x+2.

        In your case, if your last AGM was October 2021, your owners corp is not obliged to hold one before June this year.

        With that in mind, you may want to hold fire but you could have any motions presented now, if you wished, as they must be put on the agenda for the next general meeting, whenever that might be.

        That said, why scare the horses and show your hand at the same time.  Just be ready to move as soon as a date is announced.

          Thank you, for some reason I thought it had to be within a calendar month of the anniversary of the first meeting. Can’t remember where I read that but must have been old or unrelated

          I’ll patiently wait til they finally announce the date!
