In order to keep up with rising maintenance and operation costs, PAP Town Councils announced in 2023 that Service and Conservancy Charges (S&CC) will see gradual increments over the next two years. The first increment took effect on 1 July 2023. The second increment will take effect on 1 July 2024. These fees are crucial for estate upkeep as they fund cleaning, landscaping, pest control, refuse collection, and much more.
Do not fret, as eligible Singaporeans living in HDB flats will receive S&CC rebates resulting from Budget 2024’s Cost-of-Living (COL) package and GST vouchers (GSTV)
