COUNCILLORS at the Kajang Municipal Council (MPKj) have suggested that the council generate revenue for 2012 via the issuance of permits, stricter enforcement and legalising renovation works.
Councillor Lee Learn Eng said as at end of August, the council had generated RM8mil via the licensing department and RM114,500 via issuance of parking permits.
“We can also generate RM900,000 from parking permits and RM1.35mil from billboards next year.
“To ensure this, there must be strict enforcement,” he said. Source of revenue: The Kajang Municipal Council aims to collect RM1.35mil from licensing of billboards. In the meeting that lasted for over four hours, Kajang assemblyman Lee Kim Sin suggested that council members discuss in a macro way and set a goal.
“We are focusing too much on the technical aspects, which could go on for two days and still there will be no conclusion.
“We have to think a few steps ahead. There were too many debates on issues under the finance department,” he said.
Kim Sin suggested the council make an analysis of what had happened (in terms of budget) and see which methods were successful and which were not.
“For example, we should focus on the flood problem and set a target; the same goes for problems pertaining to infrastructure,” he said.
The meeting will resume on Friday.
