We are continuing  the earth work activities of the Security Fence Project on the south of the university approaching to  Thuwal Cornish as per KAUST deed and land use permit. However, Thuwal municipality stopped  the work at the south of KASUT ( picture attached ) and is asking to replant  California palm tree instead of existing tree. You are kindly  to communicate  with  Thuwal municipality  for related matter on urgent basis as this  area is KAUST land and under KAUST responsibility.
