SEASONAL fruit sellers, especially those selling durian, need to apply for a permit to sell the fruits. Penang Island City councillor Wong Yuee Harng said the permit would be valid from now until August this year. Among the conditions stipulated for the setting up of a temporary stall are a need to adhere to the approved structure size and appointing personnel to manage traffic if necessary. The fees for the temporary licence is RM1 daily for every 40 sq ft. Traders also have to pay RM6 daily for rubbish cleaning, he said. He added that the canopy fee would be a one-off payment of RM100 (400sq ft and below), RM200 (400 - 800sq ft) and RM300 (800 - 1200 sq ft).
