The man’s death is not being treated as suspicious and an official report is being prepared for the coroner.

The man is believed to have been in his late 20s.

Management at the complex are now being criticised by a resident who said two children aged 10 and 13-years-old discovered the man floating face down in the complex pool.

The woman is criticising the building for not having enough surveillance throughout the complex.

“There should be someone in an office watching monitors all day to see what’s going on,” the woman told 7 news.

“There are no cameras.”
