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. </p><p>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. </p><p>We therefore will need to hold a formal committee meeting and give 7 days notice as per NSW Law. </p><p><a href="https://www.nsw.gov.au/housing-and-construction/strata/living/meetings#:~:text=Owners%20must%20get%20notice%20at,re%20on%20the%20strata%20roll">https://www.nsw.gov.au/housing-and-construction/strata/living/meetings#:~:text=Owners%20must%20get%20notice%20at,re%20on%20the%20strata%20roll</a>.</p><p>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. </p><p>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. </p><p><b>Proposed agenda would be. </b></p><p>1. Business arise from the previous meeting</p><p>2. Resolve that Brooks position as chair of the strata committee is vacant and become available</p><p>3. Resolve to offer the vacant committee position to Paul and the position of chair. </p><p>4. Vote to accept Paul as new committee member and chair</p><p>5. Resolve that the committee believe that STM have resigned from their position as strata manager. (Re email 2021-note) </p><p>6. Committee Resolve to hold an EGM date to be decided to elect Ascend Corp as new strata management agency </p><p>7 Committee Resolve to endorse Ascend corp at forward EGM. </p><p>8 Committee resolve to authorize Matt(P) as BMC Rep to vote to endorse Ascend corp at as the BMC managing agency. </p><p>9 General Business. </p><p> </p><p>Does anyone want to add anything Please reply ASAP so i can meet our statutory requirements. </p><p>Matt</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Matt.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><img border="0" width="987" height="467" style="width:10.2812in;height:4.8645in" id="Picture_x0020_1" src="cid:image001.png@01D9406C.BD962680"></p><p> </p><p> </p><div><p class="MsoNormal">On 14/2/2023 9:08 am, Paul Mooney wrote:</p></div><blockquote style="margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt"><p class="MsoNormal">Thank you Matt, </p><div><p class="MsoNormal"> </p><div><p class="MsoNormal">Hopefully we can meet and fill you in afterwards.

Sailesh seemed to agree and is presenting the blurb to the accounts team tomorrow. Leanne is also back working there and it was she who started my complex levies and failed to address queries.
