Thanks Matt. This is what we need. Can't remember why it was voted down previously, but it was the wrong decision...

Hi All,
Here is the bylaw I proposed back in 2016. May i suggest we put
it on the agenda for this AGM. This will eliminate the need for
lot 32 to have their own bylaw in place and will give the EC the
ability to approve minor renovations. Like those for lot 32.
I have had it added to a few other buildings that I am involved
with and it has always been positively received. Of cause i am
open to any drafted changes or additions. It may need some
modifications for the new strata law as it was last seen by
solicitors in 2016 But is an excellent framework.
Matt.

Thanks Patrick,
The bylaw I proposed also included things like provisions for
charging electric cars. Putting a cage/box in your car space any
many of the things that have been currently done by many owners
without any approval whatsoever. For example a parking lock has
sprung up in a car space on level P4 over the last 3 weeks which
has no approval and under the bylaws should be removed as it's
in breach. (Not that I want that to happen) But it's in
example. There are many many more.
Many apartments have floating floors. Some would have good floor
sound proofing the 2mm angel step standard some would have
none. Many bathrooms have been renovated. ( I would love to do
mine) In theory anyone that has hung a picture hook has broken
the bylaw of affixing to common property.
The building did the right thing some years back and upgraded
the pet bylaw. Come on people lets support this by law and bring
our building up to modern standards.

Hi
Matt,
Yes, having the By law that was rejected at the last
General Meeting empowers the Committee to approve Minor
Renovations, which do not require a By Law and for such
request to then be ratified at the next General Meeting.
This speeds up the Minor Renovations process and makes
allows Owners to present their request and be approved for
the work to proceed.
Craig,
flooring renovations cannot be approved by the
Committee under the Strata Schemes Management Act 2015
unless a previously resolved By Law has been resolved
and lodged with LPI empowering the Committee for
approval as explained above. Currently SP 67851 does
not have such a By Law but I will include in the AGM
Agenda.
Kind
regards,
Patrick

I’m
absolutely fine with the installation of the floorboards
for lot 32 to go ahead. The 2mm sound cover is excellent
for this type of product in line with normal standards.
We
already have an apartment which had a new floor laid with
concrete. This really sets a foundation for other
apartments to do the same……….whether concrete, carpet,
tile or floorboards. Let the works go ahead, I say.
Thank
you.
