Hello,

You are still failing to satisfy the requirements as defined
for your job in the SSMA 1996 and your Strata Management
Contract 1999.

For the pending CTTT case SCS 12/5XXXX address these
requests now.

Regards,

Hello,

One of the points that the EC tried to use when introducing illegal
and inequitable water and gas reimbursements at the AGM 2012 was that it would bring
balance in expenses between owners in buildings and townhouses. In its own
right, that would be great if the rules of applying the rebates for the
townhouses were proper and equitable for owners in the buildings (192 of them) and
even owners in the townhouses who are conservative in their water and gas
consumption.

We will deal with this Special By-Law through CTTT SCS 12/5XXXX, which
the owners will hear about in about a week's time.

In the meantime, as a drastic example, the web page today reveals the
size of the expenses that Lot owner 215 claimed for three-month period in late
2012 for water and gas:

Plan: NSW 52948 1-15 FONTENOY ROAD MACQUARIE PARK
Creditor Code: 89089 MXIA
Document Ref.: 29481212
Document Total:  937.62

Just for water usage in period August to November 2012, this owner
claimed $785.97, and including the gas usage, it was $958.50. 

To compare, for example, the gas usage for all owners in Block A in
period June to August 2012 (most periods are quite similar), 47 owners
together spent $1,395.23, which comes to around $29 per owner in Block A.

Note that also all owners must share the cost for maintaining the
common property.

The Secretary is requested to provide justification why owners of lots
in buildings are discriminated against, and their levies spent on such
excessive private usage.

The Secretary is also requested to ensure that, until the SCS 12/5XXXX
is dealt with, or the next general meeting is scheduled, the water and gas
reimbursements be separately itemized in the balance sheets.
