Municipality: 8 warnings issued for construction violations in Farwaniya under 'Build, Don't Destroy' campaign

The Kuwait Municipality confirmed today, Tuesday, that it will continue its field visits as part of the “Build, Don’t Destroy” campaign, aimed at ensuring compliance with safety regulations and safeguarding the security and well-being of workers and residents in housing cities.

Mohammed Al-Muwaisiri, head of the safety inspection team at the Al-Farwaniyah Governorate branch of the municipality, said in a press statement 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 of the importance of adhering to the requirements and controls related to construction, demolition, and renovation works, by educating property owners and contractors on the necessity of transporting rubble and construction waste to designated sites, and not leaving them in courtyards, roads, or public areas.

He stressed the need for proper handling of construction rubble and waste, which could endanger the lives of workers and residents in the areas if neglected by contractors and property owners.

He noted that the “Build, Don’t Destroy” campaign is part of the Kuwait Municipality’s efforts to strengthen oversight, curb violations, and consolidate 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 periodically, and to contact the municipality to inquire about any regulatory requirements, thereby facilitating their procedures and ensuring compliance with laws and regulations.
