The residents association where I live (not explicitly the management company but large overlap obviously) want to use funds from our management company (unclear if from sinking fund or from other areas) to fund legal and consulting costs associated with a planning objection to a proposed nearby development. Planning permission has been granted and they're planning on appealing and could eventually end up in court.
My main question is can they fund their costs with management company funds as this action doesn't directly effect our development, such as repairs, signage, etc?
I'm personally against the objections as it's blatant nimbyism in this case and don't want my management contributions funding legal challenges of this nature. I've been trying to read mud act to get better informed but unfortunately for me, it's as clear as mud.
