Assembly Intensifies Enforcement on Waterways

The Mpohor-Fiase District Assembly has intensified enforcement against unauthorized developments on waterways to protect lives, property and the environment.

Structures that obstruct the natural flow of water can contribute to flooding and put nearby communities at risk. The Assembly is therefore urging developers and landowners to obtain the required permits and comply with planning regulations before undertaking construction.

Protecting waterways requires responsible development and cooperation from residents, property owners and other stakeholders. The Assembly's enforcement efforts are intended to reduce avoidable flood risks and support a safer, more resilient district.

Residents are encouraged to work with the relevant Assembly departments on planning and development requirements and to help protect natural drainage routes in their communities.
