State govt gives out RM1mil for restoration work on slope
THE Ampang Jaya Municipal Council (MPAJ) has received an allocation of RM1mil from the state government for restoration work to stabilise the slope near Mutiara Courts Apartment in Taman Bukit Permai, Ampang.
In StarMetro’s story “Developer Given 10-Day Extension To Complete Work” on Sept 8, it was reported that the developer of the 16 bungalows at the top of a 30m-high cliff in Taman Bukit Permai was granted an extension to cover the gaps from piling work carried out earlier.
MPAJ’s public relations officer Norhayati Ahmad said the council had taken note of rock fall caused by the loosening of rocks near the apartment.
“The slope is situated in the area maintained by the council. Following a check, it was found that the stop-work order was issued because the developers did not abide by the council’s order pertaining the construction of 16 bungalows at the top of the slope.
“The developer will continue work to complete the basic work as decided in a meeting with Teratai assemblyman Jenice Lee on Sept 2, before it ceases work,” she said, hoping that this will clarify the issue.
For enquiries, call the council’s 24-hour hotline at 03-4296 8100.
