Bayan Villa Maintenance Fee and Bukit Ikhlas Clubhouse
The clubhouse is not part of the SPA, so the maintenance of the clubhouse shall not be included into the Bayan Villa common maintenance. The clubhouse is built next to Bayan Villa, but it is separated from the Bayan Villa townhouse.
The developer is going to build the clubhouse as planned, and the owners of Bayan Villa are given privilege to join the clubhouse as members without any charge. The members are required to pay approximately RM50 monthly for the clubhouse maintenance, which is separated from the Bayan Villa common area maintenance.
Some argued the common area maintenance fee is too high as it does not cover the clubhouse maintenance. The common area maintenance fee will be at RM0.15 per sq ft as stated, without covering the clubhouse maintenance.
As what David commented, once Joint Management Body (JMB) is establish, a committee is appointed to run Bayan Villa. The committee, represented by elected buyers + developer will have to decide on fees to be collected in order to maintain the common areas. He added, once the strata title is issued, a Management Corporation (MC) is set up, and the developer will be out of the picture. The MC committee will decide on issues concerning Bayan Villa.
Basically, how much we have to pay monthly for maintenance is decided by us. Of course, the more we pay, the better we can have our neighbourhood maintained. The well-maintained and the poorly-maintained are actually depending on how much money we pay monthly for the maintenance of the neighbourhood, especially something like Bayan Villa, which was endowed with beautiful landscapes, water features, CCTV, security, etc.
As for the clubhouse, Kenneth of Bukit Ikhlas mentioned that he would love to include the clubhouse into Bayan Villa project and maintained by the maintenance fees collected, but he couldn’t do it as it was separated by the previous developer. Kenneth bought over this project from the previous developer to save Bayan Villa, to avoid Bayan Villa to become another abandon project in Selangor.
He stressed that he was looking at possibility of selling membership to neighbouring projects like Jia. This move was to collect sufficient fund for the clubhouse in order to ensure the facilities in it were all well-maintained.
Kenneth added that after the MC had been formed, and a vote was taken by the owners to take the clubhouse in, he would gladly sell the clubhouse to Bukit Ikhlas home owners for a token sum.

What action can be taken to resident who do not pay the maintenance fees?
James,
for my apartment in Sri Pinang, the maintenance admin will issue a notice to remind them to pay the outstanding fees. If the outstanding have exceeded certain amount, they will cut the water.
Put those names who never pay in notice board so that everybody goes to management office can see it.
Muahahaha…
so what i understand is, we continue our maintenance fee even after we have settle in and the maintenance work will still go on, in terms of landscaping and cctv and so on?
Hi,
Most effective way is cut their water & electrics. For the “Put those names who never pay in notice board so that everybody goes to management office can see it.” i dun think it will affect to the people that not care about it…..
Sam, let me commend you on a well written piece.., it is well appreciated. The trend of thought is simple and clear. I have to agree with you that a well maintained surroundings will be a joy for all the neighbors. And I believe the rest of us should share this type of thinking. Once again, I thank you.
Raj,
exactly.
Olu Albert,
it is my pleasure to be able to help and update you guys, especially for those who can’t visit to the site oftenly.
yeah… i agree. cut their water & electric supply. potong semua. ahahah :)

Hmmm.. how come the ‘potong’ thing sounds familiar??? :p
ya it sound P1 Wimax tv ads…
It sounds rather worrisome to me that Bkt Ikhlas will be out of sight once the strate title is granted. They used to assure me that they will set up a maintenance management within Bkt Ikhlas but it seems like they are trying to get away now. Anyone can tell me if this is a good thing?
you may consider to open the club house to public
Gather Jia and Serdang Height resident for the club house proposal.Which it will make it happen
