URA charges ISA with nine counts of unauthorised property developments

It also charged the deputy chief executive officer of ISA.

The Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) has charged International Service Apartments (ISA) with nine counts of unauthorised development of private residential properties.

It also charged the deputy chief executive officer of ISA with eight counts of unauthorised development, whilst two directors were each charged with 10 counts of the same offence.

The company and three individuals are alleged to have provided short-term accommodation at various private residential properties, which contravenes the Planning Act.

The minimum stay duration for private residential properties is three consecutive months to prevent frequent turnover of transient occupants.

URA will continue to investigate and take strict enforcement action. If found guilty under the Planning Act, offenders can be fined up to $200,000 per charge.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
