/N ce o ts COW L . did is h. is i. Oe w P We Spet vora t Condominium Institute to hold weékly seminars BY H PENMAN SMITH Special to the Beaver o â€"~ c :d Brougham, in a speech in the House of Commons in 1828, said, "Education makes a people easy to lead, diffiâ€" cult to drive, but impossible to enslave." This could well be applied to us today, particularly when it comes to managing our conâ€" dominium corporaâ€" tions. Management companies are disâ€" .covering that a Board of Directors, when well educatâ€" ed on condominiâ€" um administration, can make its job infinitely easier to carry out. Since the task of a manâ€" ager is to simply carry out the poliâ€" cies of a Board within the guideâ€" ofâ€" â€"the Condominium Act, the corporation‘s declaration and bylaws, any Board that is unaware of its responsibilities can make the manâ€" ager‘s task extremely difficult and stressful. The Answer The answer to this, of course, is education. Eduâ€" cation, not only of the â€"Board of Directors, but also of the manager, and that is one of the prime objecâ€" tives of _ the Canadian â€" Conâ€" dominium Institute through its Golden Horseshoe Chapter here in this area. To this end the chapter is offering its Spring 1994 Condominium Directors and Managers Course, beginning on Mar. 1 and continuing for seven consecuâ€" tive Tuesday evenings. â€" The course will be held at the King‘s Court Banquet Centre, 1159 King Road, Burlington, beginâ€" ning at 7 p.m. In considering a condominium, there are a number of factors which you should underâ€" stand. One of the advantages that people find attracâ€" tive is that you are relieved of the responsibility of maintaining the exterior of your unit. There are two WHAT: Condo Manager‘s Course. WHEN: Tuesdays beginning March 1 CALL: (905) 332â€"3549 parts to a condo â€" one is the unit itself and the other is something called a "common eleâ€" ment". Everything within the unit‘s walls is the responâ€" sibility of the unit owner to maintain and repair â€" and the "common eleâ€" ments" which are those parts of the cond o m in i um which are not included in the units, such as the grounds, â€" roadâ€" ways, halls, elevaâ€" tors, roofs, etc. are those which must be maintained and repaired by the condominium corâ€" poration. To govern this mixture of "perâ€" sonal" and "comâ€" munity" ownership requires _ some form of internal administration acceptable, _ to those chosen to manage the propâ€" erty, and to those living there. To this _end the provincial legislaâ€" ture enacted a piece of legislation called the "Ontario Condominium Act 1980." It has been described as "an Act to facilitate the division of properâ€" ties owned individâ€" ually and parts that are owned in comâ€" mon and to proâ€" vide for the use and management of such properties. In â€" addition, since each condoâ€" minium complex could contain a myriad of differâ€" ences such as highâ€" rise buildings with hundreds of units, together with all their assorted comâ€" ponents including elevators, air conâ€" ditioning equipâ€" ment, games rooms, _ underâ€" ground garages, security arrangeâ€" ments, in contrast to another corporaâ€" tion consisting of a few â€"townhouse units. Thus you can understand that no single form of internal governâ€" ment could possiâ€" bly be applicable to all corporations. Assignment In order also to make it possible to define the owner‘s and the corporaâ€" tion‘s share of responsibilities, each condo, upon being registered, is assigned a division of duties and obligations under a document known as a declaration. Together with a description which determines â€" the physical boundâ€" aries of the properâ€" ty, the outline of each unit as well as a series of byâ€" . laws for the purâ€" pose of governing the members and regulating the corâ€" poration‘s affairs. DIFFICULT TASK Thus as you may be aware, this could be a formiâ€" dable task when it comes to operating your complex and to this end the Golden Horseshoe Chapter is offering our educational service through the Condominium Directors and Managers Course.
