In respect of those cases of which Letter Of Demand (LOD) had been served or pending legal actions, such cases will not be able to enjoy 50% discount. Thereafter the grace period, the Council will proceed with legal action and court action in order to recover such outstanding compound fees with effect from 1st January 2024.

Prior to this, Miri City Council has adopted a softer approach for the recovery. However, there are still a considerable amount of outstanding compound fees yet to be recovered. In light of this, the Council has left with no other alternative other than to institute legal action for the recovery of which the Council’s Car Parking Legal Section has drawn out the line of action which includes:-

i. Filing Writ and obtaining Default Judgement in the Magistrate Court

ii. Execution of Court Order by way of Garnishee Proceedings

iii. Defaulters will be required to pay all the legal expenses arising from legal actions instituted against them.
