If a generic by-law for waterproofing is approved by the Owners Corporation, must subsequent requests for renovations requiring waterproofing still need to be approved by a special resolution?
I am secretary of a strata committee grappling with bathroom renovations.
If a generic by-law for waterproofing is approved by the Owners Corporation, must subsequent requests for renovations requiring waterproofing still need to be approved by a special resolution of the Owners Corporation or can this approval be provided by the Strata Committee?
My confusion arises because the NSW Fair Trading website says approval for waterproofing cannot be delegated to a Strata Committee (as opposed to Minor renovations, which can). I have heard conflicting options on this point.
Under the by-law the strata committee may be delegated the responsibility to obtain all relevant specifications, certifications, insurances, dilapidation report.
Once a generic by-law is passed which regulates all bathroom renovations in your scheme, under the by-law the strata committee may be delegated the responsibility to obtain all relevant specifications, certifications, insurances, dilapidation report etc. in accordance with the terms and conditions of the by-law.
