Ministry of Interior Circular: Regulation of Processes and Operations of Article 100 Commissions of the Municipal Law

Determining compliance with the three fundamental principles regarding violations that will be addressed according to paragraph (4) of Article 100 and lead to a penalty ruling must be assessed by qualified engineers (from the Engineering System and Building Control or certified experts from the judiciary).

Construction activities include excavation, foundation work, earth removal, wall construction, fencing, and building. The exclusive jurisdiction to prevent any construction violations and unauthorized building within the limits and boundaries of the city (excluding the areas of villages with a local administration) lies with the Article 100 Commission.

According to paragraphs 3, 2, and 4 of Article 100 of the Municipal Law, an unauthorized "structure," provided it complies with the three fundamental principles, is eligible for review and penalty by the Article 100 Commission and will not be demolished.

In other words, construction violations that have not reached the stage of creating a structure (roofed as derived from Section 4_2 of Chapter Four of the National Building Regulations) are not subject to penalties, and, in principle, demolition orders will be issued for them.
