[200William-EC SP67851] WATER PENETRATION ON LEVEL 7 AND RECOMMENCEMENT OF WORKS BY CONTRACTOR

[Craig Laforest]

To the EC and Patrick,

I refer to Patrick's recent email regarding the recommencement of works on
level 7.

As no one has been up there from the EC (other than Matt, perhaps), I took
it on myself today to take several pictures of the cracking of the planter
box walls.  The cracking is obviously due to the expansion and contraction
of the cement/bricks.  No membrane will hold together for a long period due
to this. 

Initially, it may look as though the new membrane may do its job.  However,
it is simply a band-aid covering the deep-lying problem.  As the expansion
and contraction continues over the years, we end up with fine cracks (as
evidenced by the attached pictures) which are the cause of the problem.

At the last AGM we agreed that we would look at this matter again, prior to
a decision to put the soil back into the planter boxes.  I'm not prepared to
continually live with water, once again, dripping down onto  my terrace from
level 7.

I wish to advise the Body Corporate that unless a meeting takes place again
urgently,  as we agreed at the AGM, to discuss what is the best option for
the planter box area, I will contact the Tribunal,  yet again.


            
Sincerely,
Craig Laforest
