    How does a master developer determine usage charges?

    A Master Developer is entitled to collect Usage Charges from owners or sub-developers to cover the management and repair of common parts within a Master Project. These charges apply to completed buildings, units currently under construction, and even vacant land. The share is calculated using a method adopted by the Director General, provided it complies with the approved Master Community Declaration. These funds are vital for maintaining community-wide infrastructure such as roads, parks, and shared landscape areas.
