Electric Vehicles and E-Charging Information

As more information becomes available about electric vehicles and EV Charging, the need for simplification and understanding becomes more critical. The Owners Corporation (OC) has the sole responsibility for decisions about their building, and are therefore the actual customer for EV decision making.

OCN has created an information portal for our members to access information and resources particularly relating to EV Charging.

WE ARE THE INDEPENDENT VOICE OF STRATA OWNERS

Our members say it best!

I am very pleased with my OCN membership, the discussions through sharing emails is very valuable in increasing my knowledge of strata living, the laws and EC responsibilities. I am better armed to tread the minefield of the managing agent responsibilities and the necessary action of the EC to monitor the contradictory interests of the agent.

JIM, Wolstonecraft

I would like to thank you all for the important effort that you are all putting in to look after apartment owners and tenants. It is so valuable and you are heroes. I would not have been able to deal with my duties as a strata chairman without your advice and assistance.

ANGELA, Mascot

The OCN is probably one of the best, most informed and most informative groups I have been involved with.

ALAN, Maryville

Thanks to OCN for being such a rich resource of trustworthy information about strata matters.

PETER, Chiswick

The whole strata community owes a huge debt of gratitude to you and the OCN executive. Much appreciated.

ROBERT, Darlinghurst
