Can the maintenance fund be used to change the monitoring system in the community?

Legal analysis: Maintenance funds can be used for the maintenance of residential monitoring equipment. But it depends on the specific situation, whether the warranty period has passed and what is the maintenance project? What is the budget? If it is only general maintenance, the replacement of individual parts should be the responsibility of the property company and paid from the property fee. Only large-scale renovation and large-scale equipment replacement can use the maintenance fund, but it must be signed by more than two-thirds of the owners.

Legal basis: Regulations on Property Management
