Management Committee
Posted: 18 Sep 2019 10:19
Hi Nigel,
Wondered if you could please advise. We own an apartment on a complex which has a management committee. However since the last AGM the chairman has decided he will only advise those he likes on the complex about repairs. As we do not like him and vice versa although this should have no bearing. We have subsequently since his election not received a single email from the management committee about any repairs or any other matters in almost 12 months. When questioned about this recently due to our frustration as the post boxes including ours were removed which meant our bank pin letters for our our cards went missing which resulted in 5 trips to the bank to get resolved (which we added not even notified they were going to do this). The chair's response was a dismissive speak to the solicitor. Surely any management committee has to act impartial and not just include notifying owners that they like?
We have raised this issue of ourselves and some other owners being left out to the solicitors. However there response was to put it on the table to be read out at the AGM at the end of this month. I sell asked to see the management committee rules and any changes made to this since it's incorporation. This feel on deaf ears, was ignored!
After reading through the Management Committee you attached for another member that asked about management committee (21 pages), I can not find anything that states that the Management Committee must inform all owners of any business matters unless regarded urgent? Have I missed something? It seems wrong and unlawful that all owners that have the same invested interest can treated differently by someone that abuses his power for those he deems appropriate (in this case likes).
Please assist as we are now attending this AGM meeting at the end of the month and want to be prepared to have it out as we are not being subjected to this any longer and feel all of us should be treated equally.
Regards
John
