Owners of our Units have exclusive use rights to their back yards, which have fences surrounding them shared/dividing them from different adjoining properties (properties not part of our Strata). Regarding these fences, which may need repairing or replacement, who has the responsibility for those aspects – Strata Company (Dividing Fences Act, WA) or the owners of the units because of their Exclusive Use responsibilities as indicated by the Strata Titles Act for WA?
