"An amended layout plan was approved in 2018 for the development of residences and the facilities of a clubhouse. The amended layout plan has been assessed and found to be in compliance with the Guidelines for Hillside and Slope Areas Development Planning for the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur 2010 (GPWPKL2010),” according to the statement.

The amended layout plan also complies with the requirements of DBKL’s internal technical department and related external technical agencies, it said.
