Karak Residents Call for Land Reclassification
The Batoosh tribes in the town of Al-Taybeh in the governorate of Karak are calling for a resolution regarding the "sloped" land classification file, which accounts for approximately 40.5% of the town's area. After years of waiting and official meetings, they are demanding action, as these restrictions hinder construction, diminish land values, and harm residents' interests. The local residents emphasize that there are public facilities and service infrastructure within these classified areas, such as schools and hospitals. They argue that continued enforcement of the classification is damaging to the community and obstructs regional development. They are advocating for the re-evaluation of the classified sites, identifying areas genuinely at risk, and permitting construction in geologically stable zones based on recent studies—measures that aim to ensure safety and promote local growth. The residents warn that they may escalate their actions if clear steps are not taken to lift restrictions on non-hazardous lands, stressing the importance of balancing safety with development.
