Recording NAT: Strata Managers as Fiduciaries, or ‘Wow, I didn’t know that…’ – July 2023

Michael Kleinschmidt,
Bugden Allen Graham Lawyers

QLD Q: At a recent budget meeting, the committee was unprepared and unprofessional. The meeting was moved at the last minute, and they seemed to throw numbers around. Is this usual?

William Marquand, Tower Body Corporate

NSW Q: We have four owners. Three are residents, and one is an investor. Who are the members at the meetings? Are all owners members, or only elected members?

Leanne Habib, Premium Strata

WA Q: What decisions must be voted on by the strata company? Are the annual budget and by-laws the only regular items that need a vote? Is everything else at the discretion of the COO?

Marietta Metzger,
magixstrata

QLD Q:  A copper pipe has been cut and stolen from an external wall in our strata building. Is the owner or body corporate responsible for repairing and replacing the pipe?

Todd Garsden, Mahoneys

NSW Q: Our apartment door no longer automatically closes. Would this be a breach of fire safety?

Rob Broadhead,
2020 Fire Protection

QLD Q: I am requesting a motion at the AGM out of order based on conflict with the Act. For a four lot scheme, how many votes are needed to successfully overturn the decision?
