FOUR eateries at Jalan Sultan, Kuala Lumpur were each slapped with a compound from City Hall for placing wares on pedestrian walkways and causing obstruction.

In a statement, Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) said 80 items, comprising tables, chairs, mobile stalls and gas cylinders, were confiscated.

“The confiscated items were sent to the DBKL storage facility in Taman Miharja for processing and documentation,” the local authority said.

The operation involved 32 personnel from DBKL’s Enforcement Department and also targeted unlicensed premises operated by foreigners.

The team took action under Section 46 of the Street, Drainage and Building Act 1974, Advertisements (Federal Territory) By-laws 1982 and Road Traffic Rules 1959.

“Licence holders are reminded not to place obstructions in public areas and to comply with licence application rules,” said DBKL.

City Hall had carried out a raid in Jalan Silang earlier this month, during which 110 business operators were inspected.

Separately, DBKL ordered the joint management body (JMB) of a low-cost flat in Section 2, Wangsa Maju to remove a security grille installed by a resident there.

This follows a viral social media post showing a grille being installed along a public corridor by a unit owner, which blocked access to other residents.

The move drew backlash from social media users, who called on DBKL to take action.

In a statement, DBKL said its Commissioner of Buildings inspected the area on Jan 9 and issued an instruction to the building’s JMB.

“Checks also found several units there had been renovated without approval.

“Letters were issued to the unit owners involved to restore their units to their original structures,” said City Hall.

DBKL said under the Strata Management Act 2013 (Act 757), the JMBs were responsible for enforcing the rules at strata residences.
