Too many renovation by-laws in your strata scheme?

We have a by-law for every renovation, some with multiple pages. We’ve ended up with a large number of by-laws. Many of the by-laws have no relevance for current residents. What is the answer to this dilemma?

You may wish to engage the services of a strata solicitor to draft you a “generic” by-law for all major and minor renovations.

It will be difficult to condense your by-laws as any amendments to those by-laws passed require the written consent of each owner benefited (unless you think such consent will be forthcoming from all owners).

Moving forward, you may wish to engage the services of a strata solicitor to draft you a “generic” by-law for all major and minor renovations, which includes the wording of a short form by-law to be passed for a specific renovation for a specific owner. That will reduce the volume of pages in future.
