<p>私人物業設施內的公共空間管理問題,近年惹起關注,隨着日前公布新一批公共空間名單,下一個問題就是,如何解決這個存在不少灰色地帶的歷史問題,其中一個初步構思是讓業主買回這些公共空間,掃除業權上不清晰的地方,但究竟這樣能否妥善解開死結,仍然存在很多不明朗的地方。</p>
<p> </p>
<p>... 私人物業內有讓公眾使用的設施或空間,在管理上往往會出現矛盾,從私人業主角度,當然著重私隱性,期望加強管理,減少環境因為其他人使用出現秩序、清潔、安全等可能發生的問題...    為了解決這些難題,當局拋出不如讓業主補地價,購回公共空間的方案 ... 【可是】 公共空間只是附加設施,未必有很大的使用價值, 【然而】假如業主成功增值,官員就有「賤賣」之嫌...  在私人物業設置公共空間,本來是很好的意念,代表了社會共融締造了雙贏,即使回歸方案的技術問題解決了,這個意念的消失,從公民社會的層面,仍然是極為可惜的事。</p>

    <div><font color="#cc6600"><strong>This will lead to an another issue, i e the administration of the body coporate, the security and patrolling in public space, the maintenance of hygiene and order.  This may be more achievable among large scale private residential developments and shopping malls in the nicer areas, but what about apartment blocks? or public housing? or smaller shopping precincts in which there are only 3 shops plus a supermarket?  I think these are the areas / locations that will require more of our thoughts and attentions.  At the end of the day all these comes down to rental and affordability of housing, and we all know who will be the first to suffer.
