PARAMOUNT VIEW CONDO: Access route to the condominium shot down by residents

IT is back to square one as far as the access route for the Paramount View Condominium in Petaling Jaya is concerned.

Many thought that the matter was settled with Kumpulan Ikram Sdn Bhd's recent findings - proposing Jalan SS1/39 as the route to the condominium.

But at a meeting yesterday, the Petaling Jaya City Council had discussed Ikram's proposal with residents, but it was shot down by the residents living around Jalan 22/44 in Taman Aman and neighbouring SS1/25 in Kampung Tunku.

The residents had initially expressed support for Jalan SS1/39 to be the main route given it is a long and wide stretch.

But now they are opposing it. Now they want Jalan 21/27 to be the access route for the condominium.

The meeting also raised some old and new issues like cracks in the low-cost flats due to the construction work of the condominium and its lack of parking lots that is not in accordance to Local Building By-Laws. Residents also questioned the approval for the laying of sewage pipes that will be running across the low-cost flats, another exercise disapproved by the dwellers.

Comments

30 or 40 years ago, the squatters started to sprout out near the Taman Aman lake. They do not have proper sanitary and all the rubbish were dumped into the longkang that runs into the lake. This made the lake clogged up with rubbish and during a heavy downpour it causes flood around the taman. Besides these problem, who dares to walk into the squatters area. Those residents who has been staying near the squatters for years should be thankful that this developer helped the community by building this low cost flat.

Look at the location, near to TNB pylons, sewage oxidation pond and LRT track. This project should not have been given the go ahead in its current shape and form. It should have been a less dense project with <100 build up units as the land area is too small. But since the developer had to recoup their cost for building the low-cost flats, the said developer had to build as many units as they can. To those who approved this, I sure hope you rot in hell for making the Rakyat's life a misery.

Perhaps the low cost flat was not properly made in the first place I think that the city council shld honor the initial approval, however ensure that all repair works are done with due care. I am purchaser of this property and I have invested a lot in to this. To say that the action of the previous council in questionable is not looking out for us 233 home buyers. And on the resident, as a teenager schooling nearby, i would avoid the jalan because of the squarters. Now there's a decent medium cost condo where it was, and they cause all this hoo-hah.. WOULD THEY RATHER THE SQUARTERS? to us?
