KUALA LUMPUR (Jan 9): City Hall (DBKL) has suspended indefinitely all applications for the reservation of parking bays in Kuala Lumpur.
The Malay Mail reports that Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng (pictured) said the suspension started on Nov 21 last year, pending a revision of the guidelines and mechanism on the renewal and rental of the parking bays for businesses within city limits.
“DBKL has also agreed to revise the mechanism guideline so that city folks can enjoy existing parking facilities fairly,” he said.
The suspension order came about due to complaints stemming from the difficulty in finding parking in KL.
Reserved bays are painted with red lines, instead of the typical yellow.
“Previously if you noticed, some shop lots rent four to five bays and lock up the bays even after business hours by raising the barrier pole.
“This is wrong. It must be made clear that the bays are only rented from 7.30am to 6pm on Mondays to Saturdays,” he said.
After 6pm, on Sundays and public holidays, the parking bays should be open to public.
“Therefore the public can lodge a complaint with DBKL if they come across those who refuse to adhere to the new directive that has been issued,” he said.
