Construction tycoons Charles and Paul Polidano have 55 active enforcement notices in their name for environmental abuses, according to a Mepa list.

The infringements span 1994 to last year and cover some 35 different sites including six hard stone quarries, some of which were the site of illegal dumping.

The Polidano Group was slapped with many more enforcement notices; however, 55 remain pending.

Besides documented cases of repeated illegal development at the group’s headquarters in Hal Farrug or the flagship Monte Kristo estates, which has four active enforcement notices, the list includes a villa in Safi, built illegally in 2002 outside development zones.

The Sunday Times last week revealed that illegal works resumed at the developers’ headquarters in Hal Farrug despite having been shut down by Mepa in September.
