Usage Permit
Permits for urban land uses must be applied for in accordance with the Police Approval. The Office of Operations and Care of the City Land is responsible for the delivery and issuance of permits for use.
Before applying
If there is a planned operation, event, or other use of city land, apply for a use permit. If the use is within a private plot of land, the consent of the owner of the plot of land must be obtained. It should be noted that a permit should be applied to the Road Administration for the use of urban highways and to the Fax Office for the use within port boundaries. In the city web view you can see the demarcation of the city landscape, urban highways and port boundaries. See more information before applying for a Permit to Use
