How can company title buildings manage major renovations by shareholders?
If you are a company title director for any extended length of time, there is a good chance that you will eventually receive a proposal for major renovations to a home unit. Dealing with renovations can be tricky for several reasons; the most obvious being that the building itself may be devalued if the renovations are overly disruptive or carried-out incorrectly. Unfortunately, it will be the volunteer members of the Board of Directors (the Board) that must deal with the ensuing outrage of the building’s occupiers.
Can I have a support person present when discussing my performance with my employer?
If your employer requires you to attend a compulsory performance meeting, no doubt you are feeling anxious about having to explain yourself in a way that preserves your reputation (or possibly your job). You may be wondering whether you can have a lawyer or friend present to support you in making your case. While the law does expect your employer to allow you to have a support person in some circumstances, it is important to be aware of what they can and cannot do.
