KUWAIT: Kuwait Municipality Director Ahmed Al-Manfouhi stressed he is supporting the New Kuwait 2035 vision through executing various projects that support the youth and the state’s development projects. Speaking on the sidelines of a ceremony held to sign a contract with Khatib & Alami Company (an offshore consultant) and local partner Dar Al-Kuwait Company to develop Jahra seafront, Manfouhi said the municipality does its best to ensure executing projects through a flexible process that would protect public funds.
Municipality Deputy Director Nadia Al-Sherida said she is working hard to enhance the private sector’s role in the development process. She added the project will cost KD 880,000 and will be finished within one year to be ready to serve the residents of Jahra and its surrounding areas. Khatib & Alami Chairman Faisal Al-Alami promised to take environmental, economic and social factors into consideration while planning and executing the project.
Meanwhile, the Municipal Council’s legal and financial affairs committee yesterday approved a ministerial draft law regulating funeral and burial services in Kuwait and the proposal made by councilmember Abdul Salam Al-Randi to amend article 39 of the new municipal law number 33/2016 and reactivate the old article of law number 5/2005.
In the meantime, the Municipal Council’s complainants and petitions committee is scheduled to discuss the reply it received from minister of public works and minister of state for housing affairs concerning public works ministry representatives’ absence during the committee meetings. The committee will also discuss in the meeting headed by member Meshaal Al-Hamdhan a complaint by coastal road residents about turning their neighborhood into one full of commercial complexes and shopping malls, in addition to several other complaints.
