We have just started with a new Strata Company – 1/2/17. The previous company was voted out in the 2016 October AGM. Levies were due on 1/1/17 and would’ve ordinarily been sent and paid – well mine anyway.
So the new Strata company has forwarded out a statement that requests payments for only April 1, July 1 & October 1 of 2017. Obviously assuming that the 1/1/17 levies were duly distributed and paid prior to the change-over.
So our Atillah the Hun EC member, who is trying to stash away bulk dollars to pay for some fencing, went and informed the new strata company of this, only to build up the funds. Yes what a selfless act – not!!
So do we all have to back track and pay the January levies?

If you are looking for a levies holiday, you aren’t going to get one. All it means if you didn’t get a levies notice is that they can’t reasonable charge you interest on the unpaid amount.
Your objections to “Attila” should be dealt with in the correct forum – your strata committee – and not through trying to starve the Owners Corp of funds.

Yes, that read more harshly than intended. The law establishes that levies have to be set and owners have to pay them according to unit entitlements (with a couple of variations on that general rule). The nitty gritty of invoices is not addressed.
