    Kuwait – Minister of State for Municipal and Housing Affairs Abdullatif Al-Mishari on Wednesday issued a ministerial decision on regulating construction work and the attached schedules related to Table No. 13, stating the requirements and specifications for buildings in agricultural and livestock development areas.

    The newspaper obtained a copy of the decision, which sets the permitted building percentages in the agricultural areas (Wafra, Abdali, and Sulaibiya) at 10 percent of the size of the plot, with a maximum of 10,000 square meters.

    The resolution stipulates that the setback for buildings must not be less than five meters on all sides of the boundaries of the plot, except for the designated area for garbage containers and the guard room and its facilities, which may be attached to one of the facades.

    Regarding the building percentages for dairy farms, the decision stipulates that varying building percentages of the plot area are permitted. Five percent of the plot area is allocated for concentrated and bulk feed stores and a feed grinding unit, one percent for a repair shop and spare parts warehouse, three percent for a building for automated milking machines and their accessories, and 10 percent for workers’ housing and administrative buildings.
