Good afternoon,

Allegedly Motion 15 was approved at AGM 2020 (SPECIAL BY-LAW RENOVATIONS) but no owner or tenant appears to have received updated version of the By-Laws and neither has it been published on Waratah Strata Management website portal.

The new by-laws must be registered with NSW Land Registry Services within six months after the special resolution has been passed in order for the by-laws to be valid and legally enforceable.

A by-law also has no force or effect if it is inconsistent with the Strata Schemes Management Act 2015, or any other laws.

Lodgement of changes to by-laws is done by a Consolidation/Change of By-Laws form.

Tenants must also be notified of any change in by-laws. Talking to several tenants who rent in the complex appears to confirm that none of them received latest By-Laws.

Regards,
