Strata meetings are central to how an owners corporation functions. In NSW, meetings must be conducted in accordance with the Strata Schemes Management Act 2015 and its regulations. Decisions about levies, insurance, maintenance and appointments are typically made at general meetings or by the strata committee.
Clear procedures and accurate documentation are essential. Meeting notices must be issued within required timeframes, agendas should reflect the matters to be considered, and voting must follow legislative requirements. Where procedures are not followed correctly, resolutions can be challenged.
Progressive Strata assists owners corporations in administering meetings in a manner consistent with NSW legislation. This includes preparing documentation, supporting committees in understanding procedural requirements, and ensuring outcomes are properly recorded.
Each year, every owners corporation in NSW must hold an Annual General Meeting. The AGM typically addresses financial reporting, levy contributions, insurance matters and the election of the strata committee. These meetings provide owners with an opportunity to review the scheme’s position and participate in decision-making.
Proper administration helps ensure that meetings remain orderly and compliant. Accurate minutes form part of the official records of the scheme and may be relied upon in future disputes or reviews.
Strata committee meetings allow elected members to address day-to-day matters between general meetings. Although less formal than AGMs, committee meetings must still comply with legislative requirements relating to notice, quorum and voting.
Consistent administrative support contributes to smoother governance and clearer communication within a scheme. As regulatory expectations continue to evolve in NSW, structured meeting processes remain an important part of sound strata management.
