Setting Up or Changing By-Laws (Qld)

In most states you adopt standard By-Laws and then add additional rules that best suit your property.

Remember your By-Laws must not be inconsistent with the Act governing strata schemes and body corporates in your State or any law. To get assistance you can consult a solicitor.

How to change your By-Laws in Queensland

By-Laws can be changed by “Special Resolution” at a general meeting of the body corporate. The group of owners agrees to adopt a new Community Management Statement (CMS) which identifies the changes to the By-Laws.

The new approved By-Laws must then be registered with the Registrar of Titles.
