New applications for gated and guarded communities in Selangor will only be considered provided there is no objection from any of its residents.
Under the new ruling, Yazid said approval could be given to applications with 100% consent from residents from a particular area.
Even if there was one objection from a resident, he said the council would not process the application.
The State Housing Board sent out circulars to all 12 local authorities on the new ruling.
Klang Municipal Council president Datuk Mohd Yazid Bidin, who confirmed receiving the circular, said the new ruling would be implemented in Klang with immediate effect.
The new ruling is with immediate effect following a change in policy by the Selangor state government, which earlier granted approval for gated and guarded applications based on 85% consent.
“However, the council will take the gesture of silence from the residents as consent,” he said, adding that it was up to the residents associations and property owners to sort it out.
Yazid said all the pending gated and guarded applications from various parts of Klang would be put on hold and the applicants would be required to meet the new criteria.
However, he added the ruling for guarded communities remained at 85% consent from the residents.
"I hope the residents asociations will comply with the new ruling,” he said.

USJ 2 Resident said...
The law is there for a reason, MPSJ should just execute the law. Whether or not G&G is good or bad is not a decision for an individual or even a collection of individuals who work at MPSJ.
All G&G's should be torn down as they are illegal. Placating the dominant few who feel they are right in setting it up is biased. Who audits the validity of approvals that the RA can just easily claim but not easily defend.
The law is there, abide by it.

Police reports have been made against the illegal blocking of public roads in USJ2, USJ4 Tudor etc but nothing has been done. Recently residents have even protested in front of TV cameras.
This madness to fence up, gate up and taking over of public roads by a few selfish residents has gone out of hands. Many people are angry with the DAP leaders for originally advocating this.

commitee members are just out to make a fast buck. I am a resident of USJ2 but i don't know who are the committee members & also who elected them? Why must I support an action that is considered illegal. If Rajiv really want to be reappointed in future he must get MPSJ to stop the nonsence. How many residents are willing to accept a $600.00 increase in assessment pa. I am of the opinion that if all agree to an increase in assessment then MPSJ can afford to employ more enforcement officers to overtake security arrangents for subang jaya.having foreigners guarding the neighbourhood is not a solution & having committee members threatening residents who don't support them is extremely bad bad bad

You don't have to pay a single sen if you choose to. Please report incidents where the committee has harassed any resident into paying.

Just because payment is optional, it doesn't mean that non-supporters of GnG must tolerate its over-zealous and vigilante neighbours.
MPSJ should abide and execute the law as it stands, personal opinions of its staff are irrelevant. Rajiv, it's obvious to me that you support GnG, otherwise USJ 2 would be barrier free by now.
Isn't there already sufficient evidence or at least doubts that the 85% minimum for support has not been achieved in USJ 2? How can MPSJ trust an RA and its claims? I've never been asked by anyone whether or not I support the GnG. Furthermore, the RA is set up solely for the GnG, obviously by its supporters. In fact, joining the RA requires you to pay an equivalent amount to what the GnG group is asking for. And yet, MPSJ listens to them just because they claim to speak on behalf of the community.
TV3 has covered this incident, residents have signed protests. What more do we need to do as it seems that MPSJ is blindly allowing GnG in USJ 2 just because its councillors stand by the idea?
The law is clear on the matter. I don't pay my assessments and my taxes to fund enforcers and councils to decide on which law to enact. If I as a Malaysian are bound by all laws, so is MPSJ. It really is as simple as that.
