We have an owner of a townhouse who has turned their garage into a hairdressing salon. Does anyone knowing there are any by laws prohibiting this? Our local council website says you can operate a salon from home without council approval, but says nothing about a strata managed complex.
I have asked out strata manager, but they are on holidays. Any help would be much appreciated.

That is not the issue. Where you run this type of business in a strata scheme this affects the strata insurance, as visitors to the business will not be covered for public liability unless the insurance cover is changed to commercial. This will increase premiums, and may change the scheme’s classification. The relevant person needs to seek permission.
This same topic was widely commented on in a previous thread, including some very good advice from scotlandx and others.
