Is it legal to collect fees from villages around Guangdong?

For the major cities in the Pearl River Delta, there is a unique landscape, which is the village in the city. The existence of villages in cities provides a place for migrant workers to stay. Although the overall environment of these villages in the city is not so good, the rent is cheap, so they are the first choice for migrant workers.

On the other hand, although the village in the city is not as clean and tidy as the commercial housing community, the living atmosphere is very strong and there are many businesses in the village in the city.

However, in the past, many businesses in many cities, including Dongguan and Shenzhen, have reflected a phenomenon, that is, many businesses in urban villages enclose roads and charge parking fees when parking in the village. As a result, many people dare not spend money in the village, resulting in a significant decline in the business of many businesses.

The reason why these villages in the city enclose roads to collect fees is because the roads in the village are not municipal roads, but are built at their own expense on the basis of village collective land and belong to the public property of the village collective, so the fees are reasonable and legal.

In fact, this can be said in the past, but now it is another scene in individual villages in the city. Even if it is not the village road, it is the municipal road, and it is these villages that charge fees.

For example, the road next to Zhenmei New Village in Guangming New Village and Guangming Middle School in Shenzhen is obviously a municipal road, not a road built by the village itself, but it is still charged by Zhenmei New Village.

Moreover, in addition to parking fees, many villages in the city also charge management fees to merchants. This so-called management fee is exactly the same as the property fee charged by normal commercial housing.

For example, a residential building in Meixin Village in Shenzhen is bright, with a monthly management fee of 1 yuan per square meter, and a monthly business management fee of1yuan per square meter in 3 yuan, which is equivalent to 50 square meters of shops. The monthly management fee is more than 150 yuan, which has caught up with the property management fee of commercial housing.

After these villages charge the surrounding villages, it not only increases the cost of merchants, but most importantly, many customers will charge parking fees when they see the villages. Once a certain period of time is exceeded, there will be expenses, so many people may worry that this situation will not be willing to spend in the village, which will obviously reduce the passenger flow of many merchants.

Many businesses are very dissatisfied with this situation. After all, since the outbreak of the epidemic in 2020, offline stores have not been very good. At this time, any increase in costs may become the last straw to crush them, so many merchants are dissatisfied with these villages in the city.

It can be seen that these places still have certain documentary basis for the charges of surrounding villages.

At present, some cities, including Shenzhen, allow these villages to collect fees around them, with the ultimate goal of standardizing the management of villages in cities, regulating parking behavior and improving the management order of villages in cities.

However, in reality, many villages in the city only charge fees by encircling the village, but the management can't keep up, and even many cars in the village are piled up together, and some cars are stuck in the seams, and there is no order at all.

For example, recently, some netizens reported that after the fees were charged in Qingqingjiayuan Village, Longgang District, Shenzhen, a dense and frightening parking lot appeared. Parking in the village is chaotic, and some cars even park directly on fire exits and sidewalks. This is obviously a light collection and management, which is a bit unreasonable.

Therefore, what everyone is concerned about now is not only the irrationality and illegality of the village-in-city charges, but whether the related services can keep up after the village-in-city charges.

In addition, what is the specific charge in the village? What is the standard and basis for charging? There should be a reference standard, not a single standard for each village. For example, parking in some villages in Futian now reaches 30 yuan or even more than 50 yuan a day, and many villages are not allowed to apply for monthly cards. Parking in the village can only be charged by the day. This virtually artificially raises the parking fee. What is the basis of these charges? In addition, some merchants put items in the parking space in front of the door without permission. How about these?

In fact, the most fundamental purpose of charging around the village is to regulate vehicle parking, but now the charging around the village has become a "printing machine" for some villages in the city, which is a bit stale.
