The city government has relaxed the guidelines to facilitate the application process, making it possible for private buildings in Taipei City to apply for the subsidy (including public housing communities with established management associations). The application period is between February and December each year.
Applications must be submitted on per-building basis, with the building in question being 10 years old or older, the city government said.
