    Court
    High Court

    The Court was satisfied the building was damaged, a s 74 scheme was appropriate given broad owner support and need for coordinated repairs, and the proposed scheme's terms (including funding levies across units) were a reasonable and necessary departure from the Act to achieve fairness and enforceability; accordingly the Court ordered the proposed scheme settled.

    • Scheme under s 74 unit titles act 2010
    • Levy funding and recovery
    • Leaky building remediation
