How do we vote “Yes” or “No” on a motion to have the unit complex painted with options to choose the preferred painter?
Our body corporate is voting on a motion for painting our unit complex. The motion asks whether to paint and which of the two painters is preferred. Can an owner indicate their preferred painter even though they vote no to the motion? In this case, their preference for a painter still counts if the motion passes.
They can now!
They can now! Under the former legislative regime, if you voted no to the proposed idea (i.e. paint the building), you did not have a say on who the painter was.
Under the new regime, you still get a say on the painter even if you vote no. These are now ‘same issue’ motions as opposed to the former ’motion with alternatives’.
