Question: Our caretaker has had his lawyer submit two motions. They have been lodged via an owner. Is this reasonable and fair for all owners and the body corporate?
Answer: That’s the way the system works.
Owners are entitled to submit motions as they choose. They can put up motions to vary management rights agreements along with anything else – approvals, change of by-laws etc etc etc.
The ultimate decision maker remains the body corporate in general meeting.
We sometimes have owners put up motions to engage us because they have a committee that chooses not to. That’s the way the system works.
