Earlier this morning, Mepa’s enforcement team carried out a direct action operation on two large sites in the area of Hal Farrug, adjacent to PoliGas Ltd.

The Authority placed concrete blocks to seal off these sites which were illegally being used by the developer to dump inert material, scrap and other vehicle parts together with the placing of heavy plant machinery and precast elements. In one of the sites, the developer recently started construction works without any permit and was immediately stopped.

The Authority was assisted by the ALE Police. A police officer has been stationed to surveil the entire area, to prevent any further illegal development.

Earlier this week, following several warnings, the Authority requested the Police to initiate criminal action against the developer for abusively carrying out a series of developments within the Hal Farrug area without the necessary planning permits.
