Cats allowed despite ban

Our SC have decided to allow 3 of our owner’s to keep a cat in their Villa.  I understand the cats have been here for several years, and the OC have not put in any complaints.

 

Our by-law states, no pets allowed.

 

Can the SC do this?

 

Also, the minutes of this meeting, where this was voted on, has gone out to all residents in the Village.
