MASTER DEED USE as a WEAPON
(original web post 10/24/12): The Master Deed seems to be designed or used as a weapon against Unit Owners in that water may be cut off if there is a dispute with monthly fee. Water as defined by the United Nations and international human rights organizations is a right. In fact, most any moron would realize the importance of water.
The Master Deeds and other such documents are almost the same between Century buildings. The following has now been used against a Unit Owner at SOMA. But, the key word is default. NO court declared default so the weapon was used without justification. What will or has taken place here?
From the Master Deed Section 11. MEMBERSHIP DUES AND ASSESSMENT
l) The Condominium Corporation may suspend the voting rights of a member who is in default in payment of any assessment, as provided herein or in the By-Laws. In addition, the Condominium Corporation may refuse to provide utility services, e.g. electric power, telephone, water, etc. to the defaulting Unit owner."- "May suspend?" If they, the SCCC Board, do suspend "a member", I would think they need to have a vote at a Board Meeting with a resolution declaring such an act. Has this ever taken place? Where are the Minutes & Resolutions for 2011 & 2012?
- Default needs to be declared by a court.
- Unit Owners in Soho Central pay bills directly to Meralco. This situation is confused since Greenfield Development's name is on the bills for most. So how can SCCC interfere with your service when they are not a participant? This becomes more of a major legal battle considering those who have had accounts put in their name.
- Telephone service as well as cable are also directly with the service provider. So by what right can the SCCC get in between? Has a petty dictatorship been set up?
- Water is the one utility that SCCC does control. So they seem to ignore international agreements and rulings on the basic human right of access to water even when the water bill is paid in full.
- Again, "defaulting" may only be declared by a court
