About the February 2022 edition
The February 2022 edition of The WA Strata Magazine opens the year with a focus on insurance coverage distinctions, council governance, 10-year financial planning, and WA strata legislation for Western Australian strata schemes. Insurance articles examine the difference between strata and landlord insurance for fixed items, rising premium causes, and fire door restoration charges, while governance pieces address chair authority without unanimous council agreement, AGM resolution seconding requirements, majority owner voting power, council quorum with multiple resignations, and 10-year plan levy affordability. The edition also covers pet nuisance rules, mould resolution in ground floor apartments, and Section 110 certificate obligations for purchasers.
