Call to remove Doha encroachments

KUWAIT CITY, Oct 29: Director General of Kuwait Municipality Engr Ahmad Al- Manfouhi called for coordination between the municipality and all agencies and ministries in order to report the violations committed by contractors during the implementation of government projects, reports Al-Qabas daily. In his communique, Engr Al-Manfouhi said the move is in the interest of the public, and in implementation of the provisions of the municipality law and its executive regulations, and the Cabinet’s decision to transfer some of the Ministry of Finance’s authorities to Kuwait Municipality.

He affirmed that the move is also in pursuant to the safety committee’s decision to amend Resolution No. 95/1983 regarding the conditions, rules and procedures that must be taken into account when implementing and applying the safety regulations for individuals and properties, as it is necessary for all directors of the municipality branches in all the governorates to alert. He stressed on the activation of the safety committee by applying the notification form attached to it for temporary storage sites within the boundaries of government sites only.

Engr Al-Manfouhi called on all concerned departments to abide by the circular in order to avoid falling under legal liability. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Finance has asked the Kuwait Municipality to remove illegal structures that a group of chalet users built on State properties in Doha, reports Al-Qabas daily.

In a letter addressed to the Municipality, Assistant Undersecretary for State Property and Legal Affairs at the Ministry of Finance Dr Ghazi Al-Ayyas disclosed that six users of chalets have encroached on State properties on land and the seaside without obtaining a permit. Al-Ayyash confirmed that official letters were sent earlier to these chalet users; notifying them on the need to remove the structures and return the properties to their original condition according to the approved plans, but they did not take the initiative to remove the illegal structures. He urged the Municipality to remove the illegal structures and to inform the ministry about this based on the decision of the Council of Ministers regarding the protection of real estate properties owned by the State and to prevent encroachments – use of such properties other than the intended purpose. He explained that encroachments reduce the value of the properties due to the construction of fixed or temporary structures without a permit.
