I am a proprietor of both a condo unit and a landed parcel in the same residential land and hold strata titles to these properties. Both my properties have the same Land Title Number and the same Lot Number.
At our coming AGM, there are motions to call for formation of Sub Management Committee on the premise that: 1) the lifts inside the condo building is a limited common property; 2) condo & landed parcels owners pay the same service charge rate, but the level of expenses required to maintain condo vs landed parcels are not the same; and 3) both the condo sub-MC and landed parcel sub-MC would be in a better place in the future to make much more efficient decisions according to the common area attributable to condo & the common area attributable to landed parcels respectively, leaving the main MC to be responsible for the common area for shared facilities between condo & landed parcels only.
My question is whether there are legal grounds for the sub-MC formation in the first place, given that both the condo building and the landed parcels are on the same land title. The condo building is situated in the middle of the residential land and surrounded by landed parcels, with one perimeter wall surrounding the residential land. Both condo and landed parcels share the same common facilities situated on the lower ground floor of the condo building, so there isn't a need for landed parcel residents to access condo lift lobbies.
