The "errors in printing and binding" found in the controversial PJ1 draft plan may be the cause of the misunderstanding among PJ residents, said Selangor exco for local government, housing and squatters, and environment, Mokhtar Dahlan today.
He said the Petaling Jaya Municipal Council (MPPJ) will, at most take one month, to study the objections raised by residents first and amend the draft plan based on the more valid objections.
"Those objections that they cannot justify will be sent to the state-level committee for hearing," he said when contacted.
On why residents were led to believe that the state-level committee will be the one to hear their objections, Mokhtar said the errors were "not on policy matters, so there shouldn't be a problem".
"We will rectify them at my level," he said, but declined to elaborate further.
The state-level committee, chaired by Mokhtar, will hear the objections individually by summoning each resident who had registered an objection.
Three other members on board are the state town and country planning director, Dr Halimathon Saadiah Hashim, state land and minerals department director, Asahar @ Ishak Abong and the state legal advisor, Mohd Zawawi Salleh.
