    Article (26) entitles a Master Developer to collect Usage Charges from owners or sub-developers. These charges cover the maintenance of Common Facilities within the master project, such as roads and parks. They apply to completed buildings, those under construction, and even vacant land. The share is calculated according to the Master Community Declaration. This system ensures that the infrastructure of large-scale communities is funded by all those who benefit from it.
