According to the public relations office of the zone, Seyed Ali
Mousavi, acting head of municipal affairs, announced that 101 hectares of land
had been dedicated to green spaces—surpassing the required 90 hectares.
"By law, organizations must allocate 10% of their land to green
spaces. However, we have gone beyond this commitment, dedicating over 13% of
usable land to environmental initiatives," Mousavi said.
Of the total green space, 93 hectares have been designated for trees
and shrubs, six hectares for lawns and hedges, and two hectares for flower
planting. The zone has also produced more than 18,000 mangrove saplings, 1,000
date palm trees, 1,000 sidr saplings, and 600 potted plants this year.
Mousavi noted that the zone has also repurposed its green waste,
producing and selling 9,000 kilograms of wood chips.
Looking ahead, the official said the organization plans to develop an
additional two hectares of green space in 2025 as part of its environmental
policies.
