The tenants need to be aware of the by-laws and the lease rules since both are enforceable. The difference being that lease rules are governed by landlords however, by-laws are governed by the owner corporations. Tenants do not have voting rights as far as strata level rules are concerned. A tenant should monitor the by-laws, maintain a good relationship with the landlord and suggest mutually beneficial changes.
