Unresponsive committee

A few members in our strata committee have been holding the key positions for the third term in a row now. Me and another EC member wanted to hold two of the positions for a change,but they weren’t happy with it.The SM is newly appointed(6months) and has changed the old style of voting the EC and positions at the AGM, to the secret ballot instead. How do I know who was voted when theres no transparency? The same people keep voting each other.From the word go,the SM seems to be against any by law implementations,even though that’s what he sold vociferously in his sales pitch. Our strata plan clearly has by laws in place,against hanging of laundry on balcony,residents parking in visitors. The earlier SM was keen in upkeep of by laws,but the new chap says that the majority of committee doesnt want notices sent to the residents violating by laws. This is what he says! I believe they are not keen to do so as theyre friendly with these residents,and they wont have a chat either about by laws. 

Me and one of the other member(when we held positions) had kept the block looking very neat,but now its looking very shabby. Its clear that the SM is not interested and even though he keeps saying that theres no will from the committee,the committee members have never affirmed the same in writing,they chose to not respond. Residents sub letting is another issue as those folks are using the visitors spots to park,and leave the security doors open as all of them don’t have keys. That’s a huge security risk.The SM casually wrote back on this issue saying-”In regards to overcrowding, I do not believe there is such a stipulation in your local council.” I didn’t know what to make of that?

With the previous SM,we definitely had it checked and all extra residents were allowed with the owners approval.

 From a recent look at the levies,its apparent that many of these EC members(including secretary) are in arrears,some over 60 days. The SM has chosen to ignore that as well. I’m really at my wits end,and don’t know how to better the situation? What can be done? Isnt there some way to make them implement the by laws which are there in our strata plan? Being in majority surely cant be a ticket to let by laws be flouted? I have tried calling them for talks and wrote to them as well,and that has elicited no response. Thanks in advance.
