Can one QLD committee member pursue a by-law breach alone
We are a small block of 4 units, each with a dedicated courtyard. There is one investment owner, and three owner-occupiers.
One owner-occupier sold and, when they moved out, they apparently left garden rubbish in the investment owner's courtyard. The owner has been made aware that it is their responsibility, but refuses to remove the rubbish and says the body corporate should pay for it. It is a fire and rodent hazard.
I am the sole committee member prepared to pursue this issue. What are my options if the other two committee members continue to ignore the issue?

Our building has more than 40 units, but some units have toilets which have concealed or in-wall cisterns within a common wall. Who is responsible for fixing the toilet cistern when it fails, the owners corporation or the unit owner?
Does the 75% termination rule count lots or owners
I am in a block with 6 units and own 2 of the 6. 75% of 6 is 4.5, so does that mean the 75% rule can never be met because the maximum votes in favour can only be 4 of the 6? Is this how it would work?
Will the new 3-year building management cap affect your agreement?
Our building management agreement commenced on 1 November 2016, exactly 30 days before the 2015 Act came into force, under the agreement that section 40B applied. Section 40B has been repealed. Does the 10-year term limit still apply to our agreement?
