MPSJ Assessment (Cukai Pintu) Valuation Notice.

MPSJ Assessment Valuation Notice.

By now most owners of Komplek Suria Kinrara should have received the valuation notice from Majlis Perbandaran Subang Jaya (MPSJ).  The notice dated 31 May 2011 was posted on the 6 June 2011 and reached owners either  on the 6 or 8 June 2011.

All new property owners are given a reasonable time frame to lodge objection or protest  (*bantahan), if there is disagreement with the valuation raised by the Municipal Authority(MPSJ). The deadline for the submission of your protest is 16 June 2011. Is this reasonable?  This proved a point that the Municipal Authority (MPSJ) is not sincere in listening to the views or protest from the property owners.  By the time you submit the protest, they would have claimed it has passed the deadline. This is their usual dirty tactics. Therefore, send your protest via registered mail or deliver by hand to MPSJ office and get official acknowledgement (*Akuan penerimaan).

All owners of Komplek Suria Kinrara must lodge protest on the valuation raised. The percentage of rateable value is fixed. But the valuation itself is subjective. The Valuation should be RM3,000 instead of RM3,600.  Suria Kinrara owners must protest because MPSJ did not provide full service to the Komplek, namely:-

1.    1. The sweeping of the roads in the Complex.

2. 2.  The collection of garbage by MPSJ from the Complex is from the central refuge (garbage) house only. Owners of Suria Kinrara shop and apartment have to pay garbage collection fees of RM10.00 per month to the management office.

3.  3.  Street lighting and grass cutting in the compound is managed and paid for by the owners via the management company.

The Owners/Residents Association of Komplek Suria Kinrara must also make a collective protest to the MPSJ, in addition to the individual protest by each and every owners.

The apartment owners should not be paying RM300.00 (Cukai Pintu RM180.00 + Garbage collection RM120.00) yearly for the property. Assessment (*Cukai pintu) covers street lighting, road maintenance, garbage disposal, drainage maintenance along the roads and housing area and grass cutting. Sewage treatment and disposal was part of Assessment (*Cukai Pintu).

By 1 July 2011, MPSJ will commence collection of Assessment (*Cukai Pintu) from owners directly. You shall no longer be paying assessment to the developer, Sentosa Restu (M) Sdn. Bhd.
