dc.description.abstract | It is simply incredible that in this day and age the indiscriminate uprooting of mature trees by developers still takes place. The recent uprooting of a number of such trees in a green urban pocket in Żebbuġ (Malta) between Triq is-Siġġiewi and Triq Ħal Mula to pave the way for a massive development comprising 159 garages, 137 apartments and 20 penthouses is a despicable act especially if, as alleged, the developer – GAP Holdings – had no permits in hand. It is also hard to fathom how such a high-profile developer, which is responsible for major construction projects such as Fort Cambridge, failed to see the implications of its actions. Residents must understandably have been petrified to see bulldozers overnight literally making short shrift of the mature trees. One hopes that the evidence collected on site by residents and handed to the Malta Environment and Planning Authority and the police is acted upon. | en_GB |
