Car park to increase

[Mustank]

Season $150 no problem

Problem is those jokers don't stay here one come and park

[Showster]

You are right bro. 

 

I don't pay for parking, but I also only own 1 car for my household even though we are all professionals.

 

Showster consperm is stay landed one
Got those stay nearby hdb one come and park outside house
Angry
Must start drawing lots and give season only to owner

Just a pity they did not take the opportunity to even the charges for landed housing types. That's where the highest cars per housing ratio is...

 

Landed housing got car park lot meh?

[So_nice]

The frustration is always listening to reasons why certain things have to increased when in fact it doesn't have to increase.

 

Pay extra $50-200 not much of an issue but hear cock reasons felt like being treated like a fool.

 

Japan, HK, London yes have expensive parking in town but no 10 year COE, no ERP daily..

 

IIRC, London got something similar to ERP. About $20+ per day when they enter the city.

Bro, I don't think living in any type of housing is a sin.

 

And to clarify, it shouldn't affect the first one or two cars parked inside landed porch. The issue only arise when one household has many cars lined up at the roadside, and create all kinds of conflict with each other. Just try driving through Luxus Hills to get a feel.

 

In some ways, this can also be seen as COE hoarding. Why would this charge matter to someone already owning more than 2 cars??? It is the same principle applied to HDB multiple car owners as well...

 

Why stay landed with all these problem?

 

Stay HDB lor.  Got $$ to pay season parking.  How many also no problem.

[Nzy]

Ok then.. Very ex for London CBD at GBP11... Which is £2800 per year if Everyday drive inside CBD.. 10 years £29000...

 

How about their parking outskirts parking?

 

Their car got 10 year Coe+140% ARF? Don't factor in currency conversion and 1-5 sterling is more ex than Singapore CBD.. There no $1/hr parking in CBD here at all.

 

We are in Singapore, not UK. Very different situations... Their country is big and some people have to drive for a long time to work. A car is a need over there due to the size of their country. In SIngapore, Almost everywhere is accessible by public transport and won't take many hours by public transport.

From your many posts, it seem that you always suggest the govt should increase charges for landed housing types. It seem to me that those staying in landed are sin to you.

 

When the govt gives utilities rebates every year for the last ten to twenty years to those stay in HDBs, those stay in private houses does not get a single cent rebate. Why don't you suggest? Not all staying in landed are rich. There are some staying in HDB who are rich (having condo and extra cars).

 

I think people who stay in landed are generally better off than the average Singaporean. If they are really not rich, they would have downgraded to HDB and saved alot of money. Who would be so stupid as to stay in a landed when they can't afford it? If they can afford to stay in a landed property, I don't think they need all these rebates for utilities and the GST voucher.

Some of these older landed estate could be retired civil servant.  They may not be much wealthier than you and me.

Its really about evening the charges based on the explained rationale. Nothing personal.

The best is to draw single continuos line.  No body can do roadside parking.  That will immediate remove cars from the road.  Ai Mai?

True, maybe those people bought quite cheap for their landed property back then. Now they are no much wealthier but their house are lo. Lol.

IMO, can just downgrade to HDB unless they can afford it la. Old already, kids probably shift out. Downgrade to HDB which is more accessible also better for them in many ways other than being able to save money also. That is what 2 of my aunts did when they retired. Living off pension and got a huge profit from selling off their landed and staying in smaller HDB flats.

 

In fact, one of my aunt who did that used the profit from the landed to fund her car and live off her pension and passive income. Enough to buy and maintain cars for the next 30 years even if COE is at 100k.

Human are creature of comfort. 

 

Once you are used to living at a certain place for years and you know all your neighbours,  it is very hard to move.

 

Kudos to your aunts.

Sorry OT a little bit.

 

When you all fill up immigration cards, what do you write in the "Citizen" field? Do you write:

 

1: Singapore citizen

2: Singaporean

3: Sg

4: Sgrean

5: Singapore?

Landed area only got Gazetted Parking area leh... even if draw single white line, people will still park, kena fine? Write letter simple template "Dear Officer, I have 3 families in my household, each family got one car, my house is only designed to hold 1 car, I squeeze 1 car inside, 1 car outside, 3rd car cannot put on roof so I park outside in a manner not obstructing traffic. Please forgive me and pang chance this time please. Thank you very much for your kind understanding and magnanimity." 

 

Then you'll have people who will put landscapes, plants and even clothes hangars at the parking lot, except their cars then park in front of other people's houses because landed.

[Vratenza]

you are lucky they are not considering to re-categorize it as covered carpark.....

 

 

My HDB surface has lots of tree leave. After increase, more people to sweep it clean?

 

It seems that it will remain the same.
