Question: When should proxy forms be given to the strata manager? Is delivery required before the AGM, or can the person being the proxy deliver the form at the AGM?
Answer: For a building up to 100 lots, you can deliver the proxy form at the AGM. If the building has 100+ lots, it must be submitted at least 24 hours before the meeting.
If the building has less than 100 lots, you can deliver the proxy form at the AGM. If the building has more than 100 lots, excluding utility lots, it must be submitted at least 24 hours before the meeting. That is a hard 24 hours, not business hours. If the meeting is 6 pm Monday, you’ve got until 6 pm Sunday to send in the proxy, not 6 pm Friday. If the proxy form for a large building is handed in after the 24 hour limit, you’ve missed the time window, and the proxy goes to the next meeting.
