I REFER to Wednesday's letter by Mr Tan Thiam Huat, 'HDB facilities costlier' . He compared the Jurong Town Council (JTC) booking fee for an open space or void deck with the $20 booking fee for a function hall in a condominium.
JTC charges $50 for use of the facility and $20 for utilities. The $50 is a nominal fee and is meant to maintains the facility. JTC is required to pay for utilities and the $20 is basically cost recovery. We assure Mr Tan the rates are reasonable and any surplus is reinvested in the estate in the form of upgrading programmes.
