You might know, rather unhappily, that condo dwellers are charged commercial rates for water they consume. This is RM1.38 per cubic meter. Residential landed properties are charged RM0.57 per cubic meter.
Why you may ask is this the case? The rather improbable response proffered is that commercial activity may be ongoing in the condo.
Happily though, you might also know that Syabas, the water concessionaire for Klang Valley and Selangor , has initiated an avenue for applications by condo dwellers to convert bulk metering to individual metering, thus paving the way for the levying of the lower residential rate for water consumption.
Unfortunately, and also obviously unhappily, you might also know that Syabas has laid down some rules/compliances before such applications are approved, amongst them (quite unreasonably) being that the Management of the Condominium has no objections to the application and that all residents of the condo agrees to the migration exercise.
Taking the theme of this posting to its hilt, the conclusion to the current position is :-
Happily, the Management of the Condo has no issues with this,
Obviously, all residents would agree to this,
Incredibly, there is no format set as to how residents' consent is to be secured and produced,
Comfortingly, Management has initiated discussions with Syabas and is awaiting the outcome.
We too will await, with bated breath and guarded cheque books ;-).
