Harare City Council has intensified its inspection for fire compliance on business entities across the capital.

This follows a spate of fire outbreaks during the past week.

The fires destroyed properties and goods worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

In a statement, acting town clerk, Engineer Phakamile Moyo said the inspections are part of the enforcement of city by-laws.

“This serves to notify all building owners that the City of Harare has intensified inspections for fire compliance,” he said.

“Buildings that are not fire compliant will be immediately locked up. We therefore urge building owners to visit our Fire

Brigade Depot for arrangements to have their premises inspected before the compulsory inspections.

“The city will be enforcing fire by-law 1968, Section 12.”
