An unauthorised car workshop in Kampong Jerudong has ceased its activities after being ordered by the Department of Town and Country Planning to do so.
According to the department, the workshop was found to be conducting activities and constructing building extensions without planning permission.
“The activities were carried out on land restricted for residential purposes only,” said the department. “The unauthorised workshop had caused discontent and was affecting the well-being of the neighboring residents.”
The department said that upon routine inspection, the cars at the workshop have been removed and the building extension demolished.
The department reminds the public to comply with planning laws, which stipulate that no person shall carry out the development, subdivision or consolidation of any land or carry out any work in a conservation area without permission from the planning authority.
