Anti Dengue Campaign

There is a campaign to rid our area of dengue mosquitoes. Your cooperation is needed to ensure that your unit is free from dengue mosquitoes. Please check your unit and its surrounding area to seek out hot spots where the mosquitoes might breed.

The drains of our building along USJ 16/1 are currently being cleared and sprayed with insecticides as a control measure.

Contractor for L09-15 Broke House Rule

The contractor who was carrying out renovation for unit L09-15, left his equipment and materials in the common area in front of the unit. He even did all his sawing and renovation works along the corridors to the unit. Our House Rules specifically forbid contractors from using our common areas, especially the corridors as this could interfere with proper evacuation of the building in case of an emergency. He was warned several times by the security guards and the management staff not to use the common area but did not comply. He even became drunk and unruly on 24 March 2015 when confronted by the guards. The deposit will be forfeited.

Residents from L05-03 Caused Damage To Lift #4

Residents from L05-03 caused damage to Lift #4 by jamming its doors open with a heavy object. Residents are reminded that our lifts can be easily damaged if you forcefully prevent the lift doors from closing normally. This irresponsible act will cause the lift to malfunction and action will be taken against the resident concerned.

New Service Charges and Sinking Fund

With the issuance of Strata Titles, the service charges and sinking fund for e-Tiara are now governed by provisions under the Strata Title Act 2007 (Act 663) section 23. According to the act:

Section 23 : The apportionment of the charges to be paid by the purchasers shall be determined by the Body in proportion to the allocated share units.

The service charges and sinking fund for each apartment unit, called "parcel" shall be thus determined by its share unit plus the accessories for the parcel (such as car park(s), balcony area, extra land for ground floor unit or any other extra land as specified under the parcel's strata title). 

The service charges and sinking fund rate will remain as per current rate of RM 0.352 / sq ft ( RM3.78 / M² ).

Letters are now being sent to owners about the new service charges and sinking fund.

Examples of calculation are given below:

Please refer to the Management office to determine your contribution based on your parcel’s share value entitlement. This will be implemented from 1st April 2015.
