I guess they DO own a percentage or 'share' of the property. (I have never owned a townhouse, condo etc....so not sure about all that goes with it) But because you only own a share, decisions for improvements etc have to be agreed upon by all 'share' holders.

You guys are totally right. Each owner owns their own home, plus a share of limited common property. So everyone is responsible for roadways, parking areas, mechanical systems, fire suppression, etc. The Strata Council is the governing body for the owners. And it's a sucky volunteer job.
But it was a good night of drinking with the unbalanced neighbours.
