Hi AnneY and Lee Chao Rui, Thank you so much for your information concerning Development Charge. When I spoke to some PEs, builders and architects, none of them mentioned development charge. Will look into it again. Is there anyway one can get around it without incurring dev. charge. How much would the development charge be for a 2,900 sq. ft land with built up of around 4,000 sq.ft? Don't understand how they do the calculations. Does one who has bungalow land and subdivide into 2 semi-D have to pay development charge as well? Lee
