The Monitoring Committee at CMDA issued these minutes for its meeting held on 28 September 2007. The minutes record decisions on regularisation applications for identified commercial multi-storeyed and special buildings, including whether evidence showed that construction was completed before 28 February 1999 and what conditions had to be met.
What the minutes cover
The Monitoring Committee at CMDA considered individual applications concerning commercial multi-storeyed buildings and commercial special buildings. Its decisions focused on whether each building had been completed before 28 February 1999, based on planning permissions, inspection reports, demolition notices, electricity connections, leases and other supporting records.
The minutes also confirm the previous meeting's minutes, report action taken and note an analysis of land use and parking violations in commercial multi-storeyed buildings.
General conditions
The Monitoring Committee resolved to regularise the identified commercial multi-storeyed buildings subject to these conditions:
- Alternative fire safety measures must comply with the norms of the Director of Fire and Rescue Services.
- CMDA officials must inspect the building before a regularisation fee demand is raised.
- The regularisation fee must be collected at the rate under the Regularisation, 1999 scheme.
- No construction may be added beyond what was already reported.
For commercial special buildings, the minutes require a CMDA inspection before the fee demand, collection of the fee under the Regularisation, 1999 scheme and no additional construction beyond what was reported.
