Necessary majorities

How can the necessary majorities be gained when at
the Meeting very
few proprietors attend the meeating?
The new Law establishes the obligation that has all proprietor of
notifying to the Community a home of notifications and, of not making
it, they will be valid those that are made to the floor or local in
question. The votes of the proprietors non assistants will be
considered as favorable if, once notified of the adoption of the
agreement, they don't manifest their discrepancy in the term of thirty
natural days. It is, therefore, very important for the proprietors of
second housings, in the beach or in the mountain, to communicate this
home for notifications that it will be usually that of their residence
place, to avoid that they are valid those that are made to the second
housing, usually unoccupied.

To refuse to carry out President's
position
|
If I am elected President of the Community, can I refuse to carry out
the position?
Those that are chosen to be Presidents of their Community have the
obligation of carrying out the position. They can refuse if
there is a fair cause for it, but they have to go to the Judge and to
give such a cause that will only be done if it is exactly fair. In
practical terms, it means it that only in very exceptional cases the
proprietor will be able to avoid to carry out the position for which
has been chosen.

To carry out Forbidden Activities

of the neighbors use the apartamenr /house to carry out in some forbidden
activity?
In such cases (for e.g., when a housing is dedicated to local of
business or to office being forbidden this destination in the statutes
of the Community), the President of the Community will require the
ceasing from the activity to the proprietor or tenant and, if it
doesn't cease, we will be able to go to the Judge who, in the case of
estimating the demand, he/she can end up agreeing to the privation of the
use from the housing to which is carrying out the forbidden activity,
although he is the proprietor, in which case he will only be able to
be it for a three year-old maximum. The sanction, like leave, it is
extraordinarily serious and it is of hoping the ceasing of the
forbidden activity takes place before giving place to such a serious
condemnation.

1. the buildings of new construction that will have a collective net

benefits of its ICT:
Project approved by the corresponding Professional School.
Bulletin sent by the company installer responsible for the execution
of the installation (company inscribed in the Registration of
Installers of Telecommunication).
Certification emitted by the Managing Engineer of Work, at least, in
the case of buildings with more than 20 houses, in residential
buildings that include active elements in the distribution net and in
the buildings of non residential use.
Protocol of tests with the mensurations of the facilities.
2. the buildings of old construction, without ICT that need to adapt
their facilities to receive digital television, since their collective
antennas were only designed for the reception of analogue television.
The works to carry out will depend on the quality and of the state of
the net of existent television in the building, and they will adapt to
the specifications technical collections in the legislation in

I change Administrator
Is the President of a Community able to change to the Administrator of
Properties without taking the topic to the meeting of the meeting of
neighbors?
The Administrator's appointment, as that of any other position of the
Community, he/she should remember in the Meeting of proprietors, as it
establishes the article 13 of the Law of Horizontal Property. This
agreement, as all those that refer to the administration, must take

assistants and represented in the Meeting.
In the event of urgency, the President can provisionally hire him, and
to subject this appointment to ratification in the first Meeting that
he takes place that should be in a brief term.
