Hi all,
Hoping someone can assist:
One unit has exclusive use of a courtyard attached to it, but it is deemed 'common property'. (They have a locked gate so no-one else can access it).
Works on a tree in this courtyard have taken place as it was ripping up pavers & affecting the flooring in the unit attached. The works come to approx $4.5K.
Each unit owner has contributed to the cost of the works & the B/Corp is now trying to reclaim the costs from the owner of this unit. The owner of this unit has now applied to VCAT saying they have 'leased' this land but b/c it still 'belongs' to the B/Corp they therefore shouldn't have to foot the whole bill.
Can anyone shed any light on who is in the right here?
If things don't go the B/Corp's way, (retaliatory i know), would it be possible to rip out the fence, put a BBQ in this area & have everyone be able to use it?
Thanks for your advice
