Public Consultation Closing date is Friday 23rd June 2006

The Malta Environment & Planning Authority is issuing for public consultation the resultant rationalization of development zone boundaries. This exercise follows a Cabinet decision to address anomalies, whilst channeling urban development around existing development areas and minimising the take up of additional land.

By adopting the criteria defined in the Cabinet memo this document seeks to address these issues so that a better definition of development areas may be achieved. The maps show the existing Development Zone Boundaries, the submissions made during the public consultation phase of the Local Plans and the proposed sites that have been assessed as fulfilling the pre-established criteria. It is important to note that the aim of this exercise in public consultation is to identify the land for scheme inclusion. Following this, a further exercise will be undertaken to assess and define the nature of development permitted on the approved sites.
