At the AGM held on Thursday, October 10th, the board misinformed the meeting in stating that front window repair or replacement is the responsibility of the unit owner. A motion was made requesting that the Corporation replace front windows at the buildings expense, wherever necessary and as soon as possible. Supporting reference to the Bylaws, the Condominium Property Act and the Registered Building Plan was also provided. With grave concern and question, relevant provisions in the Bylaws, Condominium Property Act and the Registered Plan of the building were met with the boards rejection and refusal to acknowledge or respect them.
Further, the board declared that no windows have ever been replaced by the building and that this expense has always and will continue to be the responsibility of the unit owner. The boards position and conduct in addressing this matter at the AGM was very misleading to say the least and in direct contravention of the law.
Please review the attached 2005 AGM minutes which provides THE TRUTH to this matter. It is noted that five residential windows were replaced along with one commercial front window at the buildings expense. The commercial damage was the result of vandalism and the residential damages were the result of structural stress. For any owner who wishes replacement of their windows which are not damaged, it is obviously their own responsibility.
The supporting documents to the motion made at the AGM are available in a previous posting on this site (May 26, 2013). It is suggested that they be reviewed as well. It is very interesting that current board members who were on the board in 1995, as well as other attending owners at this AGM who were also members of that board, have no recollection of these facts and the truth of the matter, but obviously support this most irresponsible position of this board. This most questionable conduct is without question, one of very grave concern and will not be accepted by any responsible unit owner.
