Can I vote at meetings if I owe levies?

Question

Stratapages · Accepted Answer

In most Australian states, owners with unpaid levies (and unpaid interest) lose the right to vote at general meetings on ordinary resolutions. You can usually still vote on motions requiring a special or unanimous resolution.

Pay any outstanding levies before the meeting if you want to vote. Some states allow you to pay 'under protest' if you dispute the charge — this restores your vote while you challenge the debt separately through the tribunal.
