Al-Jouf Amana

Al-Jouf Amana is the entity responsible for the urban development of al-Jouf Amana. It is one of the seventeen municipalities distributed across the thirteen provinces of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Its headquarters is located in the city of Sakaka, approximately 4.4 km from the headquarters of the region's emirate. Its responsibilities include providing municipal services to citizens and residents, achieving sustainable development, and coordinating with government entities to prepare structural plans for the region's cities, provinces, and centers.

Al-Jouf Amana is organizationally affiliated with the Ministry of Municipal Rural Affairs and Housing. It is affiliated with twelve municipalities: Dumat al-Jandal Municipality, al-Qurayat Municipality, Tabarjal Municipality, Sawyer Municipality, Zalom Municipality, al-Isawiya Municipality, al-Nasfa Municipality, al-Haditha Municipality, Abu Ajram Municipality, Northern Sakaka Municipality, Central Sakaka Municipality, and Sakaka-Qara Municipality.

The Royal Decree issued in 2009, entrusting the Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs (at the time) with the responsibility of devising development plans for the cities of the Kingdom, marked a transformation in the operations of the Municipality by setting strategic plans that outline its operational directions within specific time frames. These strategies encompassed transportation and movement towards planning and residential environments to provide housing, facilities, and services for an improved lifestyle. They also covered the built and natural environment to ensure their sustainability and municipal investments to diversify funding sources.

Al-Jouf Amana has several mandates within its jurisdiction, including asphalting roads and streets, building and maintaining parks and gardens, treating swamps and water collecting points, implementing and maintaining torrential drainage projects in roads and streets, and implementing public slaughterhouse projects.

The Amana offers a range of services, some for employees and others for individuals, such as property transfer and modification of commercial activity license services, in addition to government entities and business sector services.
