Dubai Municipality has inaugurated its groundbreaking awareness series titled ‘Run Your Project’, aimed at empowering citizens owning residential plots and embarking on home construction journeys. This initiative underscores the Municipality’s dedication to facilitating and streamlining the housing construction process while prioritizing customer satisfaction and happiness.

The series of sessions are meticulously designed to provide participants with comprehensive knowledge about the entire journey of housing construction, offering guidance on leveraging municipal services effectively at every stage. Covering various aspects such as plot allocation, consultant and contractor selection procedures, building permit issuance, project commencement, construction progress, and service provision upon completion, these sessions are set to equip homeowners with vital insights.

Furthermore, the initiative aims to raise awareness about the rights and responsibilities of all parties involved, with the overarching goal of preventing delays, conflicts, or unexpected expenses during construction projects. Aligned with the Government of Dubai’s directives, the initiative educates property owners on contemporary construction techniques, emphasizing their advantages such as cost and time savings, as well as access to innovative designs.

During the interactive session, Dubai Municipality highlighted its prominent services, including periodic home audits, construction audits, issuance of completion certificates, technical evaluations, and consideration of technical observations.

The Municipality plans to continue the series with five more awareness sessions scheduled to take place in phases over the coming months, furthering its objectives by raising awareness of owners' rights, duties, and responsibilities.

In a recent development, Dubai Municipality unveiled the ‘Building in Dubai’ platform, offering an array of services to property owners. This platform enables owners to track the progress of their projects, access model consulting and contracting agreements for villas, receive construction consultant guidance, and obtain evaluations of engineering consulting offices and registered contracting companies within the Municipality.
