taken in Block B elevator shows the smoking problems are wide-spread.
Evidence has been collected that owners are not informed via notice
boards or in the minutes of the meetings about repeated, persistent
smoking issues and health risks.
For the last 10 years, depending on times of their employment with
SP52948, BCS Strata Management, Waratah Strata Management, Universal
Strata Services, Uniqueco Property Services, and EC members failed to
issue proper compliance notices for repeated offenders for smoking and
failed to take serious actions, including financial penalties in
accordance with By-Laws.
