Untungkan Oknum, Dewan: Langkah Wali Kota Medan Bobby Gratiskan Parki Keliru
MEDAN - Member of Commission IV of the Medan City DPRD Hendra DS assesses that the City Government (Pemkot) of Medan, North Sumatra is wrong to eliminate roadside parking costs in the transition process to e-Parks in this area. "The potential of PAD (regional revenue) for large enough parking fees will be lost or enjoyed by certain individuals," said Hendra, quoted by ANTARA, Thursday, April 18. The policy of eliminating public roadside parking fees, he said, applies to those who have not implemented e-Parking or electronic parking as of April 2, 2024. But in fact, owners of public roadside parking motorized vehicles in the city of Medan still pay parking fees in the field as parking services. "Indeed, it is not the obligation of vehicle owners, but voluntarily as services because they have helped organize parking and guard vehicles," he said again. This legislator also said that parking levies are paid by vehicle owners falling to certain individuals, and automatically the policy is detrimental to the Medan City Government. "There is an alleged PAD leak from parking, so the supervision needs to be increased. Slowly conventional parking is replaced to be e-Parking, not free of charge," he stressed. The action of eliminating conventional parking by the Medan City Government is considered to be very excited and worth evaluating. "parking PAD, don't it at zero right. If it doesn't leak, it will be monitored," said Hendra.
