We wish to inform you that our Society is desirous of going for redevelopment and consists of 20 residents and 8 shops.
The Society during the tenure of the earlier Secretary permitted shops to use vacant space in front of the shops (quadrangle) which approx. admeasures 300sq.ft with very nominal refundable deposit.
The shop members are now laying conditions that only if they get additional open space which they are using, in front of their shops, after redevelopment, will they sign the consent letter.
Kindly advise us the course of action we can take in this regard.

REDEVLOPMENT proposal needs approval of duly registered members of the CHS in GENERAL BODY MEETING. If the shopkeepers who oppose revelopment, if not registered as members of CHS in what way their consent matters. They have to oppose in GBM where they have no voting power. If at all they are ‘infiltrators’ ‘encroachers’ for a small deposit. It requires a REDEVOLPMENT proposal to be approved by the CHS in GBM as required under Circular bearing No. CHS 2007/CR554/14-C, Co-operation, Marketing and Textiles Department Date: 3rd January 2009 containing a Directive under Section 79 (A) of Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act 1960 . So go ahead with REDEVELOPMENT and do not worry for the consent of such unauthorised and illegal occupants. BE BRAVE for you are not doing anything wrong. May be by going forward your former Secretary who broke an illegal deal comes in to docks.
Co-op Housing society secretary refused to transfer the share and interest to the legal heir of the deceased member of the society mere on a complaint received from ex-member who had relinquish her right and title in proper legal procedure and society also transferred the share and interest in the deceased member in 2005. the member died in 2009 and share certificate is till date in his name. the ex-member is in possession of the flat without any legal documents submitted to society, in other words she is occupying illegally. this is only because sectary and chairman are helping her. at present case in Divisional joint registrar court at New Mumbai. nearly 11 months has been passed but no hearing at site, hence your advice to poor widow may relive her pain. thanks.
