(KUNA) – The Kuwait Municipality confirmed on Tuesday that it will continue its field visits as part of the “Build, Don’t Destroy” campaign, which aims to ensure compliance with safety regulations to safeguard the security and well-being of workers and residents in residential cities.
Mohammed Al-Muwaisiri, head of the safety inspection team at the Al-Farwaniyah Governorate branch, told the press that the inspection in the governorate resulted in issuing eight warnings for violations related to non-compliance with regulations and controls governing construction works.
Al-Muwaisiri added that the campaign aims to raise awareness about the importance of adhering to regulations and controls for construction, demolition, and renovation works, by educating property owners and contractors on the necessity of transporting debris and construction waste to designated sites, rather than leaving them in courtyards, roads, or public areas.
He stressed the need for proper handling of construction debris and waste, warning that neglecting them by contractors or property owners could endanger the lives of workers and residents in the areas. He noted that the “Build, Don’t Destroy” campaign is part of the Kuwait Municipality’s efforts to strengthen oversight, curb violations, and foster a culture of preserving the environment and public property.
Al-Muwaisiri called on plot owners and those with houses under construction to follow the official accounts of the Kuwait Municipality to benefit from awareness messages and guidelines that will be published regularly, and to contact the municipality to inquire about any regulatory requirements, thereby facilitating their procedures and ensuring compliance with laws and regulations.
