The following excerpt is from Grantham v. The Owners, Strata Plan, 2013 BCPC 146 (CanLII):
As Smyth and Vogt (supra) at SPA-80.6a conclude, relying upon Sterloff v. Strata Plan No. VR 2613 ( supra): ...in carrying out its duty to repair, a strata corporation must act in the best interests of all owners and endeavour to achieve the greatest good for the greatest number, and that involves implementing necessary repairs within a budget that the owners as a whole can afford and balancing competing needs and priorities.
