The owners of the Nantucket, Chesapeake, and Lexington/New Hampshire strata schemes, the Phillip Street and Jacaranda Drive residences, the Jacaranda Drive townhouses, and the Rosemeadow Drive townhouses combine together to form the Cape Cabarita Community Association.
Association
In accordance with the Community Land Management Act (2021) the Association is responsible for managing the Cape Cabarita Scheme, including its finances, accounts, insurances and records, and by controlling the use of its property and facilities, and undertaking necessary replacements, repairs, and maintenance to them, ensuring a safe enviroment, continuing functionality, and the preservation of the Scheme’s architecture and landscapes.
The Community Management Statement is a set of by-laws and plans that regulate the management and operation of the Community Scheme, in conjunction with the Community Land Management Act 2021.
The Community Association, each Subsidiary Body and each Owner or Occupier of a Lot must comply with the Community Management Statement.
If there is an inconsistency between any by-law in the Community Management Statement and a Subsidiary Body by-law, the terms of the by-law in the Community Management Statement will prevail.
Essence of the Scheme
The Community Association, assisted by the Association Committee, has a statutory obligation to maintain and preserve the essence of the original scheme.
The architectural and landscape standards, listed in the annexures to by-law 2, define, to a degree, the Essence.
The Association Committee, by resolution, may impose additional conditions on, or not approve, any addition or alteration proposed by an owner it determines is not in keeping with the essence of the original scheme.
Association Committee
The Association Committee assists the Community Association by undertaking administrative functions pursuant to the Community Land Management Act 2021 and the by-laws detailed in the Community Management Statement.
The Association Committee currently consists of eight (8) elected representatives, one from each strata scheme, two from the residences, two from the Rosemeadow Drive townhouses, and one from the Jacaranda Drive townhouses.
Elected Representatives
Please contact your representative if you require an approval, or have an issue, that you would like presented to the Association Committee for consideration and resolution.
