The planning board has turned down a request to sanction penthouses built on two blocks of apartments in a development for the elderly in Ta’ Simblija, limits of Naxxar.

The application for the project, owned by AX Holdings, was to sanction works including internal reconfigurations to the rooms, alterations to the pool area, a spa, childcare centre and a storm water reservoir

The planning board refused the request to sanction because of an existing enforcement notice. Also, the penthouse level on the two blocks will result in an intensification of urban development outside the development zone.
