Question: In NSW, what is the minimum number of strata committee members required for a 14 lot strata scheme?
In NSW, is there a minimum number of strata committee members required? I live in a block of 14 units. Five lots are owner-occupied. I have been a committee member for eight years. For the last four years, there have been two of us on the committee. At our recent AGM, the other person decided not to continue. Our strata manager says one committee member in a small block is acceptable. Is this correct?
Answer: Your strata manager is correct.
Your strata manager is correct. Because you are not a “large” scheme or a “2 lot” scheme, there is no prescribed minimum for the number of committee members.
For more about the different requirements for two lots, three – 100 lots, and over 101 lot schemes, refer to this post: Size does matter by Allison Benson, Kerin Benson Lawyers.
