This article discusses tree removal private lot, explaining when a strata can pay to remove trees on a private lot and what voting and resolution requirements apply.
Question: If the owners of a Strata decide to vote to pay for removal of trees that are not common property but part of a lot, does this require a Special Resolution of 75% and is the owner of the lot who is receiving this financial benefit entitled to vote on the issues?
Answer: This requires an ordinary resolution, not a special resolution as it is not an alteration of common property. If voted upon by the owners corporation, the owner is permitted to vote.
