The Tribunal held that the owners corporation had statutory power under s.14 and s.18(2)(fa) BMO and contractual authority under the DMC to carry out the resolved works and to require contributions; the renovation/improvement distinction is irrelevant after the 1998 amendment to s.18(2). The respondents were liable for the approved contributions and for the 5% surcharge and $150 collection fee under the DMC, but the unapproved 10% additional contingency charge was not recoverable.
