When the condo board asks unit owners or unit owners ask to meet in addition to an AGM, it is known as a special general meeting. Such meetings are called to discuss an urgent matter that requires owner input and a resolution. A board can convene a special general meeting by giving written notice to owners at least 14 days before the meeting. When owners with units representing at least 15% of total unit factors provide a written request to hold a special general meeting, then the board must hold one by giving written notice to each owner at least 14 days before the meeting. The owners’ request must include the nature of the business to be discussed at the meeting. The board must hold the meeting within 30 days of receiving the request. Otherwise, the owners may proceed to hold the meeting. A special general meeting notice must include the meeting purpose, including proposed wording of any resolution.  As long as a reasonable attempt to give notice of a general meeting was made, failure to give notice does not invalidate anything done at that meeting.
