I heard that a development permit has been issued for bungalows at Triq Tomba, in Nadur. This is outside development zone, underneath the ridge, where there is the old Nadur cemetery.

In addition to being a considerable thrust out in ODZ, opening for development there will open the door for more building in the area known as Il-Ġebel l-Aħmar.

I looked it up on the Planning Authority map server and found permits to restore rubble walls only. But what I heard seems to come from reliable sources.

I would like to flag the damage such development will cause to an open space in ODZ and the effect it will have on the view of Nadur from the Gozo channel, Qala, Għajnsielem and Mġarr.

I am vehemently opposed to such development and call on environmental NGOs to add their voice in opposing it.

The people of Nadur should not support and/or hold in high esteem fake benefactors. The people should not be blinded by any contributions. Even the letting off of fireworks will be affected.

They are putting us in a straitjacket and we will slowly be strangled. And this is happening with the full blessing of the Planning Authority.
