Questions & Answers about Kat malikleri kurulu yarın toplanacak.

What does kat malikleri kurulu mean as a whole?

It is a set phrase for the board / council / assembly of apartment or condominium owners in a building.

A rough breakdown is:

• kat = floor/storey, but in this legal expression it points to a unit in a multi-unit building
• kat maliki = apartment/unit owner
• kat malikleri = apartment/unit owners
• kurulu = board/council/committee

So the whole phrase refers to the official body made up of the owners.

Why is it kurulu and not just kurul?

Because Turkish often forms noun compounds by adding a possessive-type ending to the second noun.

So:

• kurul = board, council
• kat malikleri kurulu = the apartment owners' board/council

That -u is part of the compound structure. You see the same pattern in expressions like:

• öğretmenler kurulu = teachers' council
• bakanlar kurulu = council of ministers

Also, in this sentence kurulu does not mean established or set up. It is the noun kurul with the compound ending.
