MBPJ Asks Complainants to Contact Council Over Parking Summonses

The Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ) is actively investigating reports of parking summonses being issued outside of designated operating hours. The council acknowledged a Utusan Malaysia report detailing user complaints about summonses issued after 6:30 p.m. on weekdays or during weekends and public holidays, periods when parking should be free. MBPJ has stated it takes these allegations seriously and is conducting a thorough review. According to MBPJ regulations, paid parking operates from Monday to Friday, 8 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Parking is free on Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays, subject to specific location rules. To facilitate a detailed investigation, MBPJ has requested that individuals who received these disputed summonses contact specific officers. They must provide crucial information such as the compound number, vehicle registration number, location, date, and time the summons was issued. This information is essential for MBPJ to conduct a proper verification and address the concerns raised by the public.
