The limits of The Committee power
Posted: 07 Mar 2017 18:40
Hi!
I have a question regarding the Committee. In 2015 it was discussed on the AGM that the owners would like to repair the swimming pool. There is stated in the minutes of the AGM that the Committee would look for offers and "present them to the owners for consideration".
In Q3/16 the costs of swimming pool repairing were stated in our common expenses bills as additional charges. The costs were not discussed with the owners, we were just presented with a fait accompli. Later the Committee signed a contract and some company started the repairing works.
No discussion with or voting by owners were made or established. The offers for the work from various companies were not presented to the owners.
But we, owners, no have to pay.
I have read the law of 1993 on jointly owned property and management. My question is whether the Committee is obligied to discuss such issues before the work starts with the owners and get their agreement?
