Planning

Strategic urban planning and regulatory clarity took centre stage during the Twelfth Ordinary Meeting of the Sixth Municipal Session, as Muharraq Municipal Council approved a set of proposals concerning road ownership and zoning adjustments  .

Among the approved matters was a formal inquiry into the ownership of roads leading to Diyar Al Muharraq and Dilmunia. The issue carries direct administrative and service implications, particularly regarding maintenance responsibility and infrastructure supervision. By endorsing the recommendation, the council established clear jurisdictional boundaries, a step viewed as essential for institutional coordination and long-term planning stability.

Zoning

In Arad, the council approved a technical committee recommendation to convert three properties within Block 242 into a commercial block system. Members indicated that the reclassification reflects evolving land use patterns and growing demand for services within surrounding residential areas. The decision is expected to strengthen organised commercial activity while preserving structural planning balance.

Discussions underscored the importance of infrastructure readiness, integrated service provision and forward planning in response to continued residential expansion.

Direction

Taken together, the endorsed rcommendations shows a deliberate municipal approach focused on regulatory precision and structured development. With approval secured, attention now shifts to executive coordination to ensure that planning decisions translate into measurable progress on the ground.
