Abu Dhabi regulates property modifications

  • United Arab Emirates: Saturday, March 23 - 2013 at 01:43

Abu Dhabi's Department of Municipal Affairs (DMA) has said that property owners in the emirate who have multiple structures erected on the same plot of land are entitled to modify, expand or rebuild the units or their attachments as required, Gulf News has reported. The department said that the units and their attachments must have been constructed after receiving building permits issued by the local municipality prior to a 2010 decree regulating residential buildings and the construction sector. Additionally, such amendments have to be geared towards improving living conditions of the inhabitants. The modifications must also be supported by an alteration permit from the municipality, and follow current planning rules and regulations, said the DMA.
