How to ‘entice’ more owners to join the EC

I’m the chairman of an executive committee of 3 including me and have been for  a year, since my arrival here.  (Strata of 12 flats).

My problem is that the other 2 are non-events.   One is a seat warmer and contributes next to nothing,  The other is what is possibly  called vexatious,  tries to block any measures  suggested involving long tedious and arrogant  emails.

That these 2 are in a relationship doesn’t help! With very hard work and the help of a very good Strata Manager (who have also been  the recipient of this rudeness)  I have managed to instigate  some much-needed improvements … most relating to safety measures  …. as little had been done for years before I came, including OH&S matters. .

I believe they elected me as chairman as they don’t want the job and hoped I’d go along with their ‘policy’ of doing as little as possible. 

I am considering writing to the other owners asking for them to join the committee and wondering how best to go about it.  I’m not holding my breath  as they don’t even attend the AGM.

I won’t of course put down the others on the committee (though I’d like to). Any ideas on how to make the idea of being on a committee…..   well, not exactly exciting,….. but at the very least inviting?   The flats are all investment properties with the exception  of we 3 committee members who live on the site.
