Council probing how empty lot became a junkyard
THE Penang Municipal Council (MPPP) will launch an investigation
to find out how an empty plot near the low medium-cost apartments
in Sungai Pinang was converted to a scrap metal junkyard illegally.
In a statement last Thursday from its public relations department,
the council acknowledged that there were illegal acts committed such
as storing and trading of scrap materials without proper licensing.
Scrap metals from damaged cars, refrigerators and other metal items
were seen dumped in that area.
The council said a notice to stop all illegal trading activities followed
by a compound had been issued to the company responsible for the
illegal activities.
The council had also conducted Ultra-Low Volume (ULV) spraying to
cover wide areas in the shortest time-frame to control mosquito-borne
diseases on three days - July 13, 22 and 25 at the location.
A dengue ‘search-and-destroy’ exercise was also conducted by the
council on July 14 and 18.
An investigation was done on July 25 and there were no traces of
mosquito breeding in that area.
The council said they had conducted larvaciding (destroying larvae)
in the area as prevention.
Earlier it was reported that the residents of Serina Bay Apartments
had protested against the conversion of an empty plot of land
nearby their apartments into a scrap metal junkyard.
The residents claimed that the incident affected the value of their
home as well as their health.
