[200WILLIAM-EC SP67851] SP 67851 Committee change proposal

Tue Feb 14 10:41:45 AEDT 2023

Hi Paul / all,

Note I have moved this thread  back tot he ec mailing list so there is a 
proper record.

  Happy to have a meeting when Matt is back. I looked up the reverent 
statute and i was in error about the two weeks notification it is  7 
days.  I also looked up the information regarding filling a vacant 
position.

Craig is correct that the committee can fill a vacant position outside 
an EGM however it must be done properly at a convened executive 
committee meeting. Not via email or general  chat. A paper meeting would 
also surface but the notification period would still apply.

We therefore will need to hold a formal committee meeting and give 7 
days notice as per NSW Law.

https://www.nsw.gov.au/housing-and-construction/strata/living/meetings#:~:text=Owners%20must%20get%20notice%20at,re%20on%20the%20strata%20roll.

So the way I see it to get Paul on board.  We get a date when Matt is 
back (beyond 7 days) and either hold a real in person or paper meeting 
to offer Paul the position and have him formally except.   It seems like 
in person is the favorable option so I can accommodate that.

If we notify everyone tomorrow (providing I even can given STM dont 
respond) That puts us at Next Thursday the 23rd. (say 6pm) Is that ok 
with you everyone. If it is please say so ASAP so can try and get STM to 
do the notification ASAP.

*Proposed agenda would be. *

1. Business arise from the previous meeting

2. Resolve that Brooks position as chair of the strata committee is 
vacant and become available

3. Resolve to offer the vacant committee position to Paul and the 
position of chair.

4. Vote to accept Paul as new committee member and chair

5. Resolve that the committee believe that STM have resigned from their 
position as strata manager. (Re email 2021-note)

6. Committee Resolve to hold an EGM  date to be decided to elect Ascend 
Corp as new strata management agency

7 Committee Resolve to endorse Ascend corp at forward EGM.

8 Committee resolve to authorize Matt(P) as BMC Rep to vote to endorse 
Ascend corp at as the BMC managing agency.

9 General Business.

Does anyone want to add anything  Please reply ASAP so i can meet our 
statutory  requirements.

Matt

Matt.
