Smart ones bailed out and sold last year.

IMHO the ones that signed that petition, or opposed repairs should not collect a dime.

I’m not sure signing a petition should cause anyone to face consequences of any sort, good or bad.

The owners know far less than the engineers, inspectors, etc. I think the blame should fall squarely on the condo board. If each owner had a vote there would be complete chaos.
