BC Strata Property Act Compliance Checklist for Property Managers
The recurring SPA obligations, as a checklist — and where they usually slip.

General information, not legal advice.
What this checklist is (and isn’t)
This is a plain-language orientation to the recurring obligations the BC Strata Property Act (“SPA”) places on a strata corporation, organized the way a manager actually encounters them. It is written to help you build a routine, not to replace the Act, the Strata Property Regulation, or legal advice. Every strata’s bylaws add detail on top of the Act, and specific situations can turn on facts a general checklist can’t anticipate. Treat it as a starting map, and confirm the specifics for your strata against the legislation or with counsel.
Governance and meetings
The most visible obligations cluster around meetings. The Act ties the Annual General Meeting to the fiscal year-end and sets both a minimum notice period and the contents of the notice package — agenda, financial statements, the proposed budget, prior minutes for approval, the full text of any special resolutions, and an insurance summary. Council meetings carry their own minutes obligation. The recurring checklist items: set the AGM date against the fiscal year-end, assemble the notice package against a list rather than memory, confirm quorum before business, and record minutes the same week for every meeting — general and council.
