And evidence of similar event in 2011:

Lot 82 windows sucked out.

• Minutes of committee meetings confirm that no owner received information about it:

• SP52948 made claim in amount of $9,190.50 but insurance covered only $6,355.00.

Attachment "BCS-Strata-Management-secret-insurance-claims-and-costs-2011.webp" gives examples of secret insurance claims (huge losses of owners) that were never disclosed to owners and investors (we suspect it is because some believe it is democratic and good business practice to do so).

As Lot 158 received absolutely no responses or evidence from any legally-approved representatives of SP52948 in NCAT case 20/33352 (in non-compliance with NCAT Directions Hearing orders), we re looking forward to hearing in February 2021.

Good afternoon,

For the second time in this complex, large portion of frame was blown away in sun room. Similar event occured some years ago in Block C and it took many months to resolve it and claim insurance.

This time in was in Lot 190 today.

Tenants of Lot 190 were visibly shaken by the experience, especially the old lady who tried to hang onto the frame before it was blown by the strong wind.

Pure luck had it that nobody was hurt and that children and people in BBQ area were not affected.

Video and photo evidence has been collected for NCAT case SC 20/33352.

Attached photos are more than enough to show the seriousness of the event.

We repeat: PROACTIVE MAINTENANCE is the root of risk avoidance.
