Regarding the idea of ​​forming metropolitan planning and development institutions, he said: "One of the issues targeted by the High Urban Planning Council in the hierarchy of preparing urban development documents is the issue of designing urban complexes, and due to the mutual influence of cities and population areas, we We consider them as a set or in the form of special plans to rule a more convergent and continuous view of urban development, which is also on the agenda.
