They suggested that we should go back to the existing supplier as the system is an old system and it would be much more economical to go back to the same supplier. Mr. Rajendren suggested that we should get his quotation for 3,000 pcs. Grace has pointed out that the CCTV is still in black and white and we should change to colour TV.

e) Mr. Gary thanked Mr. Chong Mun Choon for helping to check out the lifts' condition and to do some minor repairs. It was found that the stickers in the lifts were gone.

The first one was from the tenant of Block 106-10-03 regarding the manners of the guard on duty. The guard on duty was doing his duty as he wanted the resident to prove his status. The resident was trying to open the door of a car parked at a parking lot with a wire. When the guard approached him and he was unable to prove himself to be the owner of the car.

The second complaint letter bear no name and no address and so it was ignored.

A) Proposed additional carparks at open field area

There was a general discussion on this subject on how best to improve the present situation following our meeting with YB Wong Mun Hoe together with the YDP MPPP late last year. A few proposals from Mr. Lee Cheng Yew, Mr. S. Rajendren, Ms. May Lin and the Secretary were discussed. After the pros and cons were elaborated, the Chairman summarized the following agreed course of action we should take:

a) Erect an entrance/exit ramp at the edge of present public area and field. Paint ‘NO PARKING’ markings at this area to facilitate traffic movement in/out.

b) Cut grass and trim tree branches in the field and create parking lots by either pegging ropes or using black engine oil.

c) Erect ‘NO PARKING’ signboards along the entrance service road side next to field. It is proposed to erect on the walkway 1no. at each end and 1no. in the middle(total 3 no.).

d) Locate the existing mobile guardhouse to the no-parking side with instructions to guards to monitor the no-parking procedure.

e) Erect a chainlink fence around the field area(4ft. high). This can be implemented later.

The course of action above will ensure a smooth 2-way traffic flow as well as create additional carparks(70-100) for residents.
