The Municipal Council recommended on Monday halt of bulldozing plots of lands that have been cultivated
without obtaining advance permit from the relevant authorities. The council, at a regular session headed by the Chairman Zaid Al-Azmi, with unanimous blessing, reommended the halt of the removal of plants and trees at such plots till introduction of amendments into the regulations regarding plantations off private houses. The council approved the cabinet decision to change the name of the border region from Um-Qaser to Al-Buhaith, and referred a request by the Environment Public Authority (EPA) to name the north of Boubyan island as "the reserve of Mubarak Al-Kabeer" -- in reference to the late Amir, to a panel tasked with choosing names for public sites and regions. The members of the council pondered various other procedural and bureaucratic matters related to maintenance of roads and water sewage systems. - Kuna
