The Zhongshan commercial district in Taipei, known for its trendy fashion and food scene popular among youths, has seen over 100 businesses receiving notices from the Taipei Urban Development Department for violating land usage regulations, facing closure if not rectified. These violations include insufficient street frontage and restricted spatial usage. Concerns are raised over the motivations behind the mass reporting by a single non-resident source, with calls for flexibility in enforcement due to the unique mix of residential and commercial properties. The response from the Urban Development Department suggests a point-based system for non-severe violations to protect small independent businesses, while also considering community feedback for future urban planning adjustments in the area.
