Abstract
Development charge imposed by the local authorities is important to provide and improve public facilities and infrastructure to the public in the local authority area. In practice, development charges have been imposed on property development carried out in accordance with the provisions of Section 32 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1976 (Act 172). However, there are many challenges faced by the local authority in the implementation of development charges. Hence, the aim of this research is to study and understand the process of development charges and the implementation of development charges by Klang Municipal Council, Selangor. A semi-structured interview was conducted with five (5) respondents from Klang Municipal Council and developers. An analysis is done based on the data obtained from relevant Acts, Manuals and interviews with personnel that is involved in the process. The findings of the study indicated that despite the challenges in implementing the development charges, Klang Municipal Council complied with the process and requirements of development charge as stated in the Town and Country Planning 1976.
