Vice Chairman of the Union of Cooperative Societies Khaled Al-Hudhaiban warned that vehicles will not be allowed to park at the co-op parking lots for over three days and that surveillance cameras will be installed to monitor the parking areas.

He said some expats park their vehicles in coops’ parking lots before departing Kuwait for vacations, adding that this will not be tolerated and that the municipality will be contacted after three days to act.

Manager of cleaning at the Capital municipality Meshaal Al-Azmi said KD 135 will be collected as a fine for leaving vehicles parked in co-op parking lots, including charges for removing the vehicle and safeguarding it, and KD 1 per day of impoundment. Municipality will ask co-ops to provide them with the license plate numbers of vehicles parked for long periods, he said.

Municipality usually pastes warning stickers for 24 hours on vehicles displayed for sale and for 48 hours on abandoned vehicles before removing them.
