Home Buyers should ask for Balcony Building Permits and Current Safety Check

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is responsible for planning and budget allocation? Each Strata Scheme is responsible for planning and budget allocation to meet its service delivery needs. Your Strata Scheme relies on your sinking fund plans and your works priorities input and also on information from your Building Manager. The Building Manager provides your Strata Scheme with outlines of work that needs to be done and realistic cost estimates. The priorities put forward by the Building Manager are considered by the Strata Scheme. The risks are assessed and a program of work and budget is established, taking into account site management issues. Particular attention is given to issues including occupational health and safety, building sustainability and works maintenance and improvements to support high priority programs. Why does my Building Manager sometimes use consultants for planning and design work? When undertaking minor works, the Building Manager does not provide for design and documentation of alterations and additions where the specialist services of architects and engineers are required. Also from time to time the Building manager and Strata Plan require specialists to advise them on issues such as legislated procedures, heritage matters, and appropriate engineering options. Benefits from the arrangements are that your Building Manager engages these private sector consultants and provides professional advice on any specific details to meet legislation or government requirements. This saves the client and the site manager time and money and ensures they are not exposed to risks.
