MBPJ sets up committee to act against owners of abandoned houses


What’s going on?: This house in Section 12 has a signboard placed outside it, citing a proposal to have it reconstructed. During StarMetro’s visit to the site, no construction-related activities could be seen but someone was spotted camping in the premises.

THE Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ) has set up a committee to monitor abandoned houses and punish owners who had left the task of maintaining the houses to the council.

In order to punish the errant owners, the committee, headed by MBPJ councillor for Section 21 Jeyaseelan Anthony, has decided to enforce Section 74 of the Local Government Act 1976 during its second meeting recently.
