Abstract: | Qala mayor Clint Camilleri recently wrote on his Facebook page that the long-awaited works in Qala parish square could finally start as the local council already had permits to uproot the palm trees on site, while permits to uproot the remaining mature Ficus trees were still awaited from the Malta Environment and Planning Authority. The mayor’s post soon triggered a barrage of justified complaints from residents and non-residents alike about the removal of this valuable tree cover. Among other considerations, it transpires that despite not being indigenous, the trees concerned are an important roosting site for white wagtails. |
