Now more teeth to the Managing Committee to deal with erring members

-
Dear Saketians,

Important information:
The latest amendments to the Model Byelaws of Society have given the Managing Committee more teeth to deal with erring members.
Byelaw no. 170(a) states:
All open /common spaces meant for use of all members e.g. Staircase, steps, landing areas, parking areas, lift, corridors and such other spaces, cannot be occupied by any member for his own use.
The use of such areas shall be restricted to the cause for which these are meant.
Any member found to be violating the above condition by encroachment shall have to vacate the encroachment and further he/she shall have to pay a penalty equal to 5 times the monthly maintenance charges per month for the period for which he has encroached such spaces.
Members must not carry out any construction, structural changes over and above the sanctioned plan with out prior permission of the society and the concerned Municipal authorities. Also they must not use their flat for any other purpose than what has been sanctioned.
Any member violating the above directives shall have to pay a penalty 2 times the monthly maintenance charges per month for the period for which such violation existed.
This means society can charge penalty of 5 times the maintenance charges per month to all members who dump material in staircases, cycles outside meter rooms, keep personal stuff on terraces, all villas who have built stairs outside their courtyard room etc.
Also, society can charge penalty of 2 times the monthly maintenance charges per month on all members who have made alterations / changes to their flats with out permission, till such time the alterations are reversed.
This is for your information.
Regards,
Dayanand Nene
