My committee worded a agm Motion to change the colour of the slabs and lintels and other cement surfaces within our brick building. It read to change the colour ‘from, and to’ and not as a motion with alternatives ‘A leave it, B change to new”, it said in the accompanying note that owners would be supplied photoshop examples beforehand which were not forthcoming prior to the vote. Should this Motion in the form present be challengable, or do you folks think it is what it is and the vote outcome would stand? I’m not for it at all so happy to fight it (currently outcome not known as I missed the meeting).

If you don’t attend general meetings in person or by proxy, you won’t get much sympathy on this website or in Tribunal hearings.

Depends on the reason for non-attendance. People have jobs or are away. Strata managers have been known to schedule general meetings to suit their office hours, not the availability of owners to attend.

The alternative to leave it be – the status quo – is implied in a vote to accept or reject a colour change. Vote no to a change to whatever colour that’s been suggested implies a vote against any colour change – at least until a new vote is proposed on a preferred colour change.
