Zone earmarked for villa development.
The vacant site fronting Triq id-Dejma was included in the 2006 extension of building zones, a decision which paved the way for development in the area.
Before development permits are issued in any areas included in the rationalisation, MEPA has to issue planning guidelines applying to each zone.
The inclusion of the site in development zones was subject to an archaeological study carried out by the Superintendence for Cultural Heritage, which found no features worthy of protection.
The site lies in the vicinity of the Tal-Wej's scheduled area where no development can take place.
The developer proposed a detached and semi-detached residential villa development with a building height limitation of two floors and an underlying basement.
Labour MP Roderick Galdes was the only board member to vote against this particular application.

I strongly agree with the above words, becuase Maepa, must sit down to dicuss what is going to do with the site especially if it a subject to an archaelolgical study.

Why should the best places reserved for snobs? Are the rest of the people children of a lesser God?

Will Mr James Debono comment on Roderick galdes's Vote in his Blog like he did on another recent vote?
Will Astrid Vella and her Ghal Ambjent Ahjar come out to voice an objection?
Let's wait and see....
