Reef Resort Stage 1 (The Body Corporate for Reef Terraces CTS 888) Annual General Meeting
What a mess this is shaping up to be. Firstly, ignoring the regulations and the wishes of more than 50 owners the body corporate committee insist on holding the AGM in Cairns.
This means a 3 hour return trip to attend for owners who are either visiting or living in Port Douglas.
Then there is the lying and cheating.
The BC committee sent out how to vote advice and a sample voting paper on 31 January. In particular Motion 9.1 which it was stated to engage Archers for a further 12 months. Motion 9.1 is for a term of 3 years not 12 months. Was this a deliberate lie? Or was it an accident? The mistake was spotted the same day and following protocol, was reported to the Manager (Archers) on the same day.
Saturday 3 February. An "Urgent" email was sent out by the BC secretary containing the same voting advice and how to vote card. Being a Saturday and being urgent it did not come via Archers. The mistake was still in the documents. Accidental? I think not.
Telling a lie and then cheating?
Should motion 9.1 pass? No, probably not. A record term of 3 years? A manager in Cairns? I think not.
Then, there are the other mistakes in the agenda; wrong minutes and wrong dates on the budget.
