[200William-EC SP67851] SP 67851 - Tribunal hearing - Craig Stephen Carew Laforest vs. Owners Corporation SP67851

Wed Nov 23 15:51:33 AEDT 2016

Hi Craig,

I have spoken to multiple people at NCAT and received the attached notice due to the fact that I advised NCAT that myself or the Secretary for the Owners Corporation had not received notification of the hearing date, hence there was no representative present on Friday 18th November 2016.

At present., I am waiting on a response from NCAT in relation to the attached as the file is being reviewed and a further response will be provided within the next 21 to 28b days.

This means the notice sent yesterday about such a decision is pending and will not be placed on the notice board as requested until confirmation of the decision made is final.

I will advise accordingly once a response and clarification has been received by NCAT.

Kind regards,
Patrick Rush
Strata Manager

Patrick,

At the Tribunal hearing on November 18, 2016, Mr Vrabac advised me that a copy of his final decision made on that date, should be posted in the notice board immediately and mailed to all apartment owners.

This was because he agreed that all owners of apartments should be made aware of how the Body Corporate, at the time of my original complaint, did not act as they should have to make the necessary investigations and repairs and did not ultimately comply with the Tribunal's decision of February 18, 2015.

As Strata Manager, I recommend you follow through with your obligation as soon as possible to keep all owners in our building informed of what process they should follow in the future if they experience the same problems with our Body Corporate.

I look forward to hearing from you as soon as you have completed the above posting of Mr Vrabac's orders, into the notice board, and the mail out to all owners.

Sincerely,
Craig Laforest

Hi Craig,

Thank you for your email below and please see my responses to each query -

1.    STM and the Owners Corporation never received notification of the Hearing date. If myself or Brook were notified of the hearing date, we would have attended on behalf of the Owners Corporation.

2.    I have been in contact with NCAT and they have sent the attached with Orders for payment of a fine and costs to yourself. When I receive the official notification from NCAT, I will seek instructions from the Executive Committee.

3.    I have contacted Strat Engineering Solutions and requested an update and a date when the tenders will be available for review.

4.    I have contacted Strata Engineering Solutions to confirm when the report will be ready from the pooling of the water in the garage area.

I will advise further on points 3 & 4 when I have had a response.

Kind regards,
Patrick Rush
Strata Manager

Subject: Tribunal hearing - Craig Stephen Carew Laforest vs. Owners Corporation SP67851

Patrick,

1.  At the Tribunal hearing this past Friday, November 18, no one from the Owner's Corporation SP67851, nor from your office, had the courtesy to attend.  I attended the Tribunal hearing myself.

It was disgraceful that neither you nor a representative of Owner's Corporation SP67851 didn't attend, as the gentleman who presided over the meeting expected to hear your/the respondent's (Owner's Corporation SP67851) claim/s.

2.  As a result of the Tribunal hearing on November 18, a fine has been imposed on the Owner's Corporation SP67851.  Details will be sent to you shortly from NCAT.

3.  Kindly provide me with an update on where we stand with quotes from contractors for the water penetration repairs above my apartment.  I understand an EC meeting for this matter has yet to be confirmed?  Is that true?  How can we expedite this?

4.  When will an investigation and repairs of water penetration, affecting my car space/ storage area on level P4, by a professional engineer and contractor, commence?  This matter has been ongoing for many months.

Sincerely,
Craig Laforest
