      This concerns a 32 unit strata in NSW that is having the outside of the strata building painted at a cost of $ 250,000.  Some Owners have just now become aware that the paint that is being applied to the building at this time is a slightly different color to what has been applied previously and had been ordered by the OC.

      Evidently the EC knew about this a month ago but neglected to call an EGM and advise the Owners about what was happening.

      Section 62 of the Strata Titles Act is not being carried out as the appearance of the building is being changed and the EC have decided on their own to carry out the painting and not inform the Owners.

      This EC has been in office around 9 months and have not held an EC meeting for Owners to attend.

      Instead the Chairman has informal meetings with the other members of the EC in his apartment and not in an area where other Owners can participate let alone even know when these meetings take place.

      The EC constantly e-mail one another but again the Owners don’t know what is going on and there is no transparency.

      Our understanding is that a few of the EC members suggested that the Owners be informed but this did not happen.

      What would you suggest we do about this?
