Does a strata corporation have a duty to repair or maintain a specific owner's CP?
British Columbia, Canada
The following excerpt is from Verigin v. The Owners, Strata Plan VR112, 2021 BCCRT 950 (CanLII):
41. A strata corporation does not have a duty to repair or maintain CP according to the requirements of a specific owner (see Swan v. The Owners, Strata Plan LMS 410, 2018 BCCRT 241 at paragraph 51). Although not binding upon me, I agree with the reasoning in Swan. The key consideration is whether the proposed repairs are reasonable as contemplated in Weir.
