About the July 2022 edition
The July 2022 edition of The VIC Strata Magazine places a strong emphasis on cladding, balcony, and waterproofing issues alongside broader insurance, governance, and community inclusion topics for Victorian owners corporations. Insurance articles address balcony waterproofing coverage, cladding-related insurance exclusions, communal drain flooding classification, and cladding rectification damage, while legal pieces examine stratum and company title structures, exclusive use of courtyards, and developer-appointed OC manager relationships. The edition also reflects on five years since the Grenfell Tower fire and what Victoria's strata sector can learn from the tragedy.
