Serving on a Strata Committee

The Strata Committee holds a significant role in governing their scheme.

Committee members typically serve voluntarily, dedicating their time without expectation of compensation. Understanding the legal obligations imposed by the Strata Schemes Management Act 2015, Regulations 2016, Owners Corporation, Strata By-laws, and other legislation is essential. This is especially crucial for owners new to committee service or unfamiliar with Owners Corporation operations.

Our holistic approach to strata management ensures that all owners and Strata Committee members are assisted, guided and supported in comprehending their roles, duties, and responsibilities.

Fire Compliance

Legislation and building codes mandate strict fire safety provisions to prevent property damage and injuries in buildings.
Compliance with fire safety standards is crucial during construction or conversion of buildings, especially for public safety-centric structures like hospitals, hotels, offices, and multi-dwelling properties.

Part 9 of the Environmental Planning & Assessment Regulations outlines fire safety requirements, including those specified by the Building Code of Australia .

Fire safety measures are determined during the planning and design phase, approved by local councils, and certified upon completion with a Fire Safety Certificate.

Annual inspection and testing of fire safety equipment are mandatory, with the building owner responsible for obtaining an Annual Fire Safety Statement.

In strata schemes, the Owners Corporation is considered the building owner and is responsible for compliance.

AS1851.7 mandates annual inspection of fire doors in strata schemes to ensure their integrity and functionality.

Alterations to fire doors, if not compliant with regulations, can compromise their fire rating and necessitate replacement.

Owners should ensure any modifications to fire doors comply with fire safety regulations to avoid liability for restoring fire rating.
