Can two of our eight owners choose to use a different pest inspector from the one approved by the majority of residents?
Our small strata of eight houses has yearly termite inspections. Our strata manager advised us to change pest inspectors. The majority of residents have approved the new pest inspector, however, two residents wish to employ the inspectors we had last year.
Are they entitled to do that? Or do they need to follow the majority of the residents?
The decision would have to have been made by resolution at a general meeting of the owners corporation or the quote approved by a majority of the strata committee at minimum.
For a “majority of residents” to have approved the new contractor, the decision would have to have been made by resolution at a general meeting of the owners corporation or the quote approved by a majority of the strata committee at minimum.
The opposition would be bound by a majority decision of the owners corporation in a general meeting or quote approved by the strata committee (depending on cost and any other restrictions).
