Hi all. Our Annual General Meeting will be held in May or June. I strongly suspect our Executive Committee, who have been neglectful and inactive all year, will attempt to get a few resolutions passed which some of us here may view as inappropriate. This happens every year; things that have needed attention for some time, all of a sudden are addressed with improper and band-aid, short-sighted solutions. It’s as if they do it to as evidence they’ve been hard at it but there’s always a lack of forethought and real planning.
Of course, they’ll also be the annual disbandment of the Committee and a new election. The nucleus of proxy controllers will most likely stay with the addition of a new sycophant or two. From then on it’ll be more of the same. Nothing will move ahead. The strata manager will swing the same way as the prevailing, damp sea breeze.
We are a block of 32 in Sydney. Do the EC and Strata Manager have to tell us when the AGM is going to be on, in time to for us to put our own resolutions on the agenda? When the AGM notice turns up it’s usually a big surprise.
Can the annual disbandment of the Committee and election of the new Committee be put off in an AGM until everyone of the prospective new Committee members views on issues are known? Could we, for example, ask for a vote to change when the agenda item about this occurs?
What can be done, actually in a meeting, about someone holding say, 10 proxies, who has obviously gone around asking for them? (With the purpose of stopping things moving ahead rather than getting some good stuff done.)
Usually what is best might be ‘continuity’ in a strata, I suppose. But not here. We need a whole new way of doing things. Please help.
