  1. empty_carpark_lots.bmpWith effect from 15 Jan'13, URA main tower carpark has turned away public and solely for season parking. On top of season parking, season parking holders were told to park at yellow lots as red lots were specially for URA. I have been parking my car in that carpark for 3years. On 15 Jan, I experienced a very poor and well managed treatment. Being a season parking holder, I was shoved away to park at yellow lots. Those yellow lots were not ideal lots as they were limited, mostly located at basement 2 and majority of parallel lots. The first come first serve available parking lots were no longer valid. From 15 Jan, convenient lots were painted red (previously were yellow lots but were painted red on 14 Jan'13 with no indication). On top of that, there were NO indication of red lots. I can understand red lots labelled as reserved for management for CEO etc.. but there were no indication for the first 2days. Warning notices were placed on cars. I simply cant believe and accept the fact that in Singapore context, red lots were indication of season parking. Being a season parking holder, I was not allowed to park at the red lots and was told for URA only. What is this? Prejudices ? Biases? sub standard? I paid for the monthly season parking as the URA tenant or staff. (not certain of there were discount for those URA staff or tenant but the fact is season parking holder were not given much consideration.) Why were those lots made red and deliberately for URA season parking convenient? Season parking holders are considered a second grade? No more of first come first serve? I need to ferry my kids from school during lunch hours. With such inconsiderate arrangement, I need to spent 2-3more mins extra in the carpark to look for space (Everyday) mainly because most unfavourable yellow lots were now on basement 2 instead of basement 1. I noticed that the red lots were under-utilised by URA. Many at times, I saw the empty red lots not occupied. Also they wasted resources by having caraprk attendants to be in the carpark making sure that season parking holder dont park at those red lots. (only on 16 Jan evening, they started to paint the red lots with extra working indicating - RESERVED). This is a stupidity act and poor managed implementation. Reserved for who??? who is the big shots? Its really degrading season parking holders with the Different standards. I was told by one season parking holder that he was charged for early entry to the carpark. This is ridiculous, season parking holder needs to pay more for early entry. Have you heard of that??? paid season parking yet have to park for fine when you entered the carpark earlier. I was not told there was a timing for Season parking holder. Poor communication from URA. For many years, the carpark serves numerous public because of the locality that is next to Maxwell food centre and Chinatown, it brings convenient to the hawkers and also public who patronage the area for food and others who visted URA for design building and etc purposes. Now public were told to park at the east wing, it was not a well facilitated carpark. Hawkers and public can never find the convenience. I am sad as I am treated like a second class citizen. Disturbing me as I have to waste of time to drive round the carpark. (Everyday) . If fact I was thinking, those URA lots for URA staff and tenant, they will spend most of the time in the building why on earth they need prority lots. I urge the management will look into this. I dont mind to bring this up to higher authority or even the minister of URA... Think of it second grade treatment, I must pursue
