Thank you.

The response is unsatisfactory and seems to contain elements of some kind of threats?

Many questions were not answered or addressed.

Using legal help will be a very wrong decision for owners corporation, as it will show it is done to defend selective group of owners for their failures to act in accordance with the laws.

There is plenty of evidence to prove that EC, strata managers, and building managers only act to protect own interests. Not for the benefit of owners corporation.

1. Smoking near our balcony and bedrooms continued unabated. Owners corporation is responsible for health hazard to my family and me.

2. Lift problems. They do exist. We have more witnesses.

3. Video evidence has been collected from more units showing that ventilation is awful. In one unit, in one of the bathrooms even presence of unpleasant smells are detected.

4. Virtually unlimited number of repairs of water damages in units on top floor of Block A (at our expense).

5. The unsolicited push by some owners to "be friendly" with other owners and tenants exist even when those owners do not want to be approached. Mr. Carbone knows about it.

6. We are paying for gas levies for a group of owners who have significant debt (including 10% simple interest per year).

7. Safety for our family is YOUR responsibility in equal manner as for any other tenant and owner.

and so on...

Please fix the issues, and there will be no need for communications. We certainly do not want to waste our time. Act in accordance with the laws and regulations.

As an example, for smoking, see that all ashtrays are removed near Fire Door 2, notice put on Fire Door 2 to warn against it, notice put on board in Block A and in lift, including the penalties (the same way notice was put about smoking problems in Block C this week). By not doing it in Block A, you are directly discriminating against owners in Block A and Lot 158 especially. That is one example of simple and immediate fix.

Regards,

You continue to write to us by email, even though you have expressly instructed that all correspondence to you is to be by post. We have also received approx. 50 pages of computer generated error message emails, so you clearly have a problem with your computer or (as a claimed IT expert) are deliberately causing email errors. I will provide this response, but in future all correspondence from you must be sent to us by post, as previously advised, or it will be ignored.

 

We have received many emails from you over the last month which relate to Owners Corporation issues that are not directly related to Lot 158. These issues only indirectly relate to you as members of the Owners Corporation. All of this correspondence is in direct breach of the undertaking you gave at the 2018 AGM that you would cease correspondence to the Owners Corporation, the strata committee, lot owners and the strata managing agents unless it is an issue directly affecting Lot 158. This does not mean affecting the owners of Lot 158, but of Lot 158 itself. As resolved at the AGM, the strata committee are authorised to seek legal advice at any time should you breach the commitment to cease correspondence unless it directly affected Lot 158. All of your correspondence and this breach of your undertaking will be discussed at the next available strata committee meeting.

 

We provide the following responses to those issues we consider to be directly related to Lot 158.

 

·         Lot 158 Exhaust Fans – This has been responded to directly by Steve Carbone.

·         Lot 158 use of the lift – Following is a response from Steve Carbone  advising Liftronic have investigated this issue and no fault with the lift has been found.

·         Stalking claim by Lot 158 against Uniqueco staff – You advise this has been reported to the police. Stalking is a criminal issue and should therefore be left in the hands of the police to deal with as they see fit. Waratah Strata and the Owners Corporation will therefore not get involved in this matter.

Hi Robert,

 

Regarding the lift, I have checked this several times over the past few weeks and found no fault. No other complaints have been bought to my attention from A Block residents.  

 

I called Liftronic out last week to check A Block lift and they found no faults present at time of testing. 

 

We did have an issue with B Block lift skipping levels several months ago. Liftronic were onsite to inspect and found that new parts were required. They sourced second hand parts due to the age of the lifts.  

 

As you are aware, we are in the process of upgrading all 4 lifts and this will illuminate any future faults that may occur.

Regards,

Steve Carbone
