What is an EGM and when is one called?

An Extraordinary General Meeting is any general meeting held outside the normal AGM cycle. Called when an urgent or material decision can't wait for the next AGM — major repairs, special levy, by-law change, or termination of the strata manager.

Anyone with a quarter of unit entitlements can usually requisition an EGM by written notice to the strata manager, who must then call the meeting within a set time (commonly 14 days). Notice and quorum requirements are the same as for the AGM.
