>> Thanks Maxine for the explanation. I am not sure it was clear that the
actual 
levies would increase because of the budgets. Having said that I would like
to 
propose we meet again to discuss the budgets and reallocate ( reduce ) in
areas 
where we can ) so we can get the levies back to the level they were. Quite 
frankly, the building of this type does not warrant such extravagant fees
as 
there are no facilities ( pool / doormen / gym etc ) Equally, it would
appear we 
are subsidising the Commercial owners quite heavily and maybe it is time
for 
this to be addressed. Could we please have a vote on whether we need to
re-meet 
to discuss the budgets

>> Dear Committee,
>>  
>> The levy that was discussed at the AGM was:
>>  
>> Administration          $213,000.00 plus GST
>> Sinking                   $  38,147.77 plus GST
>>  
>> The previous year was:
>>  
>> Administration          $196,000.00 plus GST
>> Sinking                   $   5,000.00 plus GST
>>  
>> The Administration has increased due to the levy contributions to the
BMC as 
electricity costs and insurance costs have increased.
>>  
>> The Sinking amount was adopted as per what the sinking fund plan
proposed.  
It was discussed that last year we only contributed to the sinking fund 
$5,000.00 and I advised that we have to propose what the sinking fund plan
has 
stated but it is up to the owners corporation as to whether you adopt that 
amount, which was passed at the meeting.
>>  
>> It was discussed that painting will need to be done in the next few
years and 
that the funds need to be built up for this rather than raising special
levies.

>> I too was shocked, but could it include the sinking levy contribution? 
Remember a couple of years ago when we had all those extra amounts to pay
for 
just that?

did not 
pass a motion at the AGM to increase the levy charges from June 1.

>> Maxine, I received my levies, for the period above, in the mail on
Tuesday 
and noted a sizeable increase for each of my lots.  Would you please
explain why 
the levy increase was made.  The actual total Admin charge for the year
ending 
28/02/13 was $250,464.79, whereas the budget for the year ending 28/02/14
is 
only $214,027.
