Article 42 – The owners of the apartments cannot make any changes on their own in the common areas of the main real estate; all innovations and additions that will help to make the common areas more proper or to make them more comfortable and easy to use or to increase the benefit to be obtained from these places are made upon the decision of the majority of the owners in number and land share.
(Additional paragraph: 1/7/2005-5378/19 art.) In case it is deemed necessary for the life of the disabled, the project modification shall be discussed in a meeting of the condominium owners to be held within three months at the latest and shall be decided by a majority of the number and land share. If the meeting cannot be held within this period or the request for modification is not accepted by the majority; upon the request of the relevant condominium owner, construction, repair and installation shall be carried out according to the approved project change or sketch to be received from the relevant authorities based on the commission report stating that the building security is not endangered. The relevant authorities shall finalize the approved project change or sketch requests within six months at the latest. The establishment of the commission, its working method and the procedures and principles regarding the process after the disabled person’s use shall be determined by a regulation to be prepared jointly by the Ministry of Public Works and Settlement and the Presidency of the Administration for the Disabled.

The expenses of these works shall be paid by those who benefit from the innovations according to the rate of benefit.
