SUMMARY:Xebbajtuna! Bidla fl-Ambjent u l-Ippjanar ISSA! - Protesta Nazzjonali
DESCRIPTION: Għaqdiet ambjentali qegħdin isejħu lill-pubbliku sabiex jipparteċipa fi protesta nazzjonali l-Belt Valletta nhar is-Sibt 27 ta’ Mejju. Il-protesta ser tibda fl-10.30 am minn ħdejn il-Funtana tat-Tritoni. \n Il-gruppi kollha\, formali u informali\, madwar Malta u Għawdex\, jistgħu jappoġġjaw din il-protesta billi jikkuntattjawna fuq info@xebbajtuna.org jew jimlew il-formola fuq dan is-sit www.xebbajtuna.org. Dawn il-gruppi jistgħu jinkludu għaqdiet mhux governattivi kif ukoll gruppi ta’ residenti\, studenti\, ħaddiema u bdiewa; kull grupp mingħajr affiljazzjoni partiġġjana b’għanijiet konformi mat-talbiet tal-protesta huwa mistieden jipparteċipa. \n Ninsabu f’sitwazzjoni ta’ emerġenza. Il-kwalità tal-ħajja u l-ambjent naturali fil-gżejjer tagħna qegħdin jiddeterjoraw b’rata mgħaġġla minħabba ferneżija ta’ bini bl-addoċċ u kullimkien. Dan kollu ma jiġix mix-xejn. Wara dan l-isfreġju ambjentali tinsab xibka magħmula minn politiċi u żviluppaturi li ħolqu sistema li sservi l-qligħ tal-ftit minflok il-ġid komuni. \n Din is-sitwazzjoni nistgħu nbiddulha biss bl-għaqda fost dawk kollha li jimpurtahom mill-ġid komuni. L-għajta tagħna ser tkun: Xebbajtuna! Bidla fl-ambjent u l-ippjanar ISSA! \n Ara t-talbiet tagħna: www.xebbajtuna.org \n———– \n Environmental organisations are calling on the public to participate in a national protest in Valletta on Saturday 27 May. The protest will start at 10.30 am from the Triton Fountain. \n All groups around Malta and Gozo\, both formal and informal\, can endorse this protest by contacting us on info@xebbajtuna.org or filling in the online form on this website www.xebbajtuna.org. Groups can include non-governmental organisations as well as residents\, students\, workers and farmers: all non-partisan groups whose aims are in line with the demands of the protest are invited to join. \n We are living a state of emergency. The quality of life and the natural environment of our islands are deteriorating rapidly due to a frenzy of reckless building everywhere. We are in this mess for one clear reason. Behind this wave of environmental destruction lies a web of politicians and developers who have created a system that serves the profit of the few instead of the common good. \n This dire situation can only change with unity among all those groups who have the common good at heart. Our battle cry will be: Enough is enough – we demand environmental and planning reform NOW! \n Read our demands: www.xebbajtuna.org

SUMMARY:Protesta tar-Residenti Kontra l-Impjant tat-Tarmak fl-Imqabba
DESCRIPTION:Nhar il-Ħadd li ġej\, residenti mill-Imqabba\, il-Qrendi\, iż-Żurrieq u s-Siġġiewi se jkunu qed jingħaqdu flimkien fi protesta kontra r-rilokazzjoni ta’ impjant tat-tarmak u l-konkrit fl-Imqabba. \nIl-protesta se tibda fl-10am quddiem il-Knisja Parrokkjali tal-Qrendi fejn wara se ssir mixja paċifika sal-Knisja ta’ San Mattew tal-Maqluba. \nAħna se nkunu qed nattendu din il-protesta b’turija ta’ appoġġ lejn dawn ir-residenti u nħeġġu lil kull min huwa affettwat biex jattendi bi ħġaru. \nIr-residenti\, flimkien mal-Kunsilli Lokali tal-lokalitajiet rispettivi\, jinsabu serjament imħassba dwar l-effetti li impjant tat-tarmak u tal-konkrit\, madwar 500 metru biss ’il bogħod minn żoni residenzjali\, se jkollu fuq saħħithom u l-kwalità tal-ħajja tagħhom. \nHija ġennata li l-awtoritajiet\, fosthom l-ERA\, mhuma jsibu l-ebda oġġezzjoni għar-rilokazzjoni ta’ dan l-impjant qalb ir-residenti. L-ERA qed tgħid li l-impatti li dan l-impjant jista’ jkollu f’termini ta’ storbju u ġenerazzjoni ta’ trabijiet mhumiex ta’ tħassib\, iżda ma ssemmi xejn dwar id-dħaħen tossiċi għas-saħħa li kapaċi jipproduċu dawn l-impjanti. \nNistgħu nistaqsu lir-residenti tal-Iklin u San Ġwann li jgħixu qrib l-impjant tal-Bitmac dwar id-dħaħen tossiċi li jiġġeneraw impjanti tal-asfalt. Dawn ir-residenti ilhom snin jibilgħu dħaħen tal-asfalt fi djarhom u jitkarrbu mal-awtoritajiet biex tittieħed azzjoni\, iżda l-awtoritajiet jibqgħu jkaxkru saqajhom. \nDan l-attakk fuq saħħitna u l-kwalità tal-ħajja tagħna hemm bżonn li jieqaf. Ejjew ningħaqdu mar-residenti tal-Imqabba nhar il-Ħadd sabiex nuru lill-awtoritajiet li aħna lesti nagħmlu dak kollu li hu meħtieġ sabiex nissalvagwardjaw saħħitna u saħħet uliedna.

SUMMARY:NO! to 13-storey tower in Xemxija - Press Conference
DESCRIPTION:Il-Moviment Graffitti qed jappoġġja lir-residenti fil-ġlieda tagħhom kontra żvilupp massiv ieħor li qiegħed jiġi propost fix-Xemxija. Torri ta’ 13-il sular (PA/00865/24) qed jiġi propost biex jinbena fuq art tax-xagħri u qrib ħafna cart ruts protetti. Dan il-proġett mostruż ħa jipperikola wkoll il-banjijiet Rumani li jinsabu taħt iż-żona\, fejn qed tiġi proposta triq ġdida biex takkomoda l-ammont kbir ta’ appartamenti li ser joħloq dan il-proġett. \nIr-residenti tax-Xemxija diġà qegħdin jaffaċċjaw il-bini ta’ ’l fuq minn 700 appartament fuq is-sit ta’ fejn qabel kien hemm il-Mistra Village\, ftit metri biss ’il bogħod minn dan it-torri propost ta’ 13-il sular. Jekk dan it-torri jiġi approvat\, se jkunu qed jinbnew iktar minn 1000 appartament fl-istess ħin u tul l-istess triq f’din il-lokalità żgħira \nB’hekk\, nappellaw lill-Awtorità tal-Ippjanar biex tirrifjuta din l-applikazzjoni. Żvilupp mostruż ieħor se jkompli jiġġenera iktar storbju\, trabijiet\, traffiku u joħloq aktar stress lir-residenti. \nNappellaw ukoll lis-Sovrintendenza tal-Patrimonju Kulturali biex tieħu pożizzjoni ċara kontra din il-proposta li se tirriżulta fil-qerda tal-kuntest tal-cart ruts fiż-żona\, peress li l-iżvilupp propost jinsab proprju fis-sit fejn jinsabu l-cart ruts\, kif ukoll għax ix-xogħol ta’ skavar intensiv ser ikun qiegħed jipperikola l-wirt storiku tal-banjijiet Rumani. \nFinalment\, qegħdin inħeġġu wkoll lill-Gvern biex jipproteġi l-art li fuqha qiegħed jiġi propost dan it-torri u jiżgura l-aċċess ħieles għaliha\, sabiex jiġu preservati l-wirt kulturali u naturali taż-żona għall-ġenerazzjonijiet li ġejjin\, u jiġi preservat ukoll l-ispazju miftuħ li diġà hemm. \nGħalhekk\, qed nagħmlu appell lir-residenti tax-Xemxija u lill-pubbliku sabiex jingħaqdu magħna f’din il-konferenza stampa (ara l-post: https://shorturl.at/AKT58) fejn ser insemmgħu leħinna u nagħmluha ċara li din il-proposta għandha tiġi rrifjutata kompletament fl-interess tar-residenti u wirt artna. \n****** \nNO! to 13-storey tower in Xemxija \nMoviment Graffitti is supporting residents as they oppose yet another mega development in the small town of Xemxija. A 13-storey tower (PA/00865/24) is proposed on protected garigue and very close to established cart ruts\, with this monster development also endangering the Roman Baths that are found right below the area in question\, where a new road is proposed in order to deal with the massive influx of apartments. \nXemxija residents are already facing the construction of another 700-plus apartments on the site of the former Mistra Village\, metres away from the proposed 13-storey tower. If the new tower proposal were to go through\, over 1000 apartments would be built at the same time on the same road in this very small town. \nTherefore\, we urge the Planning Authority to refuse this application as it stands. Another monster development would continue to add copious amounts of noise\, dust\, traffic\, and stress to the residents of the area. \nWe also urge the Superintendent of Cultural Heritage to take a stand against this application which\, if approved\, will ruin the context of the cart ruts of the area\, as well as posing a danger to the Roman Baths just under this proposed development. The extensive works proposed will put this valuable site at major risk. \nFinally\, we also urge the Government to protect the land for the common benefit of residents and ensure public access\, preserving the cultural and natural heritage for generations to come\, and preserving the open space there already is. \nWe ask the residents of Xemxija and the general public to join us at this Press Conference (see location: https://shorturl.at/AKT58) to voice our many concerns and to make it clear that this proposal should be refused outright to safeguard the interests of the residents and our cultural heritage.

SUMMARY:Għinna nġibu l-Belt Valletta lura - Help us get Valletta Back
DESCRIPTION:This Saturday 6th April at 11am\, we will be joining the Valletta residents in front of Parliament to protest against the current state of Valletta. \nThe occupation of public spaces in Valletta by tables\, chairs and other structures placed on public land by catering outlets has now exceeded all limits. \nDespite there being clear policies that are meant to regulate the operation of outdoor catering areas\, enforcement is largely non-existent. The authorities concerned\, namely the Lands Authority\, the Planning Authority and the MTA are clearly not fit for the job. \nDue to the impunity that reigns in this sector\, the owners of catering establishments are running roughshod over the right of residents to public accessibility and a decent quality of life. The Valletta residents are having to bear to brunt of the unbridled commercialisation of their public spaces. \nAs the Office of the Ombudsman stressed\, the situation is so desperate that emergency vehicles such as ambulances are finding carriageways blocked as they have to squeeze past tables and chairs to get to people in distress. All these illegalities and abuses are making the life of Valletta residents very difficult. \nResidents from other localities who are also facing the same problems\, including Sliema\, Buġibba\, Marsaskala and Mellieħa\, will be joining us for this protest organised by the Valletta residents. \nOur capital city\, which is considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site\, is an integral part of our collective cultural heritage and must be protected. We therefore encourage you to join us! \n****** \nNhar is-Sibt 6 ta’ April fil-11am se nkunu qed ningħaqdu mar-residenti Beltin quddiem il-Parlament fi protesta kontra l-istat attwali li fih tinsab il-Belt Valletta. \nL-okkupazzjoni tal-ispazji pubbliċi fil-Belt Valletta mill-imwejjed\, siġġijiet u strutturi oħra mqiegħda fuq art pubblika mir-ristoranti u l-istabbilimenti kummerċjali issa qabżet kull limitu aċċettabbli. \nMinkejja li jeżistu liġijiet ċari biex jirregolaw l-operat tar-ristoranti fuq art pubblika\, ma teżisti ebda forma ta’ infurzar serju min-naħa tal-awtoritajiet ikkonċernati\, fosthom l-Awtorità tal-Artijiet\, l-Awtorità tal-Ippjanar u l-MTA. Sforz din il-klima ta’ impunità\, is-sidien tal-istabbilimenti kummerċjali qed jagħmlu li jridu\, bir-residenti tal-Belt Valletta jkollhom ibatu l-konsegwenzi tal-ġungla li ġab miegħu l-kummerċ bla rażan. \nKif saħaq l-Ombudsman\, saħansitra ambulanza qed issib diffikultà biex tgħaddi mit-toroq maħnuqa bl-imwejjed u s-siġġijiet. Din il-klima ta’ illegalità u abbuż qed tagħmel il-ħajja tar-residenti Beltin diffiċli ħafna. \nGħal din il-protesta organizzata mill-Beltin se jkunu qed jingħaqdu magħna wkoll għadd ta’ residenti minn lokalitajiet oħra li qed iħabbtu wiċċhom mal-istess sitwazzjoni\, fosthom Tas-Sliema\, Buġibba\, Wied il-Għajn u l-Mellieħa. \nIl-belt kapitali\, li hija patrimonju dinji tal-UNESCO\, hija wirt kulturali tagħna kollha u jeħtieġ li nipproteġuha. Inħeġġukom biex tingħaqdu magħna!

SUMMARY:Il-Bankini taċ-Ċittadini! - Konferenza Stampa
DESCRIPTION:It-tnaqqir tal-ispazji pubbliċi tagħna qiegħed kulma jmur dejjem jiżdied. Il-bankini\, it-toroq\, il-pjazez u anke l-kosta tagħna qed jiġu maħnuqa bl-imwejjed\, siġġijiet u strutturi oħra mqiegħda minn stabbilmenti kummerċjali għad-detriment tad-dritt bażiku tagħna li naċċessaw u ngawdu bla xkiel l-ispazji pubbliċi. \nIl-bilanċ li jisħqu fuqu l-awtoritajiet huwa evidenti li mhux qed jintlaħaq\, u ta’ dan qed ibatu r-residenti li jgħixu f’lokalitajiet assedjati mill-kummerċ bla rażan. L-awtoritajiet responsabbli\, jiġifieri l-Awtorità tal-Ippjanar\, l-Awtorità tal-Artijiet u l-Awtorità Maltija għat-Turiżmu\, qed jirrifjutaw li jħarsu l-interessi tal-poplu u minflok qed iħallu l-abbuż jirrenja. Wasal iż-żmien li din is-sitwazzjoni tiġi indirizzata bis-serjetà. \nNhar is-Sibt 27 ta’ April nistidnukom għal konferenza stampa sabiex inniedu l-kampanja Il-Bankini taċ-Ċittadini. Se niltaqgħu fl-10.30am\, fi Triq il-Merkanti (ħdejn il-MUŻA)\, il-Belt Valletta. \nF’din il-konferenza stampa se jingħaqdu magħna għadd ta’ gruppi ta’ residenti minn lokalitajiet differenti\, fosthom il-Belt Valletta\, Tas-Sliema\, Wied il-Għajn\, Buġibba\, u l-Mellieħa. Flimkien magħhom ħejjejna dokument b’għadd ta’ talbiet intiżi biex iservu ta’ soluzzjoni għall-problemi li qed jinħolqu sforz l-abbuż tal-ispazju pubbliċi tagħna. Dan id-dokument se nkunu qed nippreżentawh uffiċjalment waqt din il-konferenza stampa bl-għan li l-awtoritajiet konċernati jisimgħu t-talbiet tagħna u jwettquhom fil-prattika. \nInħeġġukom tingħaqdu magħna u mar-residenti sabiex flimkien insemmgħu leħinna kontra l-abbuż u s-serq tal-ispazji pubbliċi tagħna! \n****** \nIl-Bankini taċ-Ċittadini – Press Conference \nThe sight of public spaces completely overtaken by tables\, chairs and other street furniture has become all too common. Tables and chairs placed by catering establishments have clogged up our pavements\, streets\, squares\, and even our coast\, trampling over our basic right to safe and unobstructed public access. \nThe so-called balance that the authorities always emphasise is evidently not being achieved\, and the dire consequences of this are being felt by the residents of localities besieged by commercial interests. Enforcement is non-existent\, and the authorities responsible for this mess\, namely the Planning Authority\, the Lands Authority\, and the Malta Tourism Authority\, are refusing to protect our interests\, allowing the abuse of public land to go on unimpeded instead. We believe that the time has come to seriously address this state of affairs. \nOn Saturday 27th April we invite you to join us for a press conference that will launch the Il-Bankini taċ-Ċittadini campaign. We shall be meeting in Merchants Street (next to MUŻA) at 10.30am. \nDifferent resident groups hailing from several localities\, among which Valletta\, Tas-Sliema\, Marsaskala\, Buġibba and Mellieħa\, will be joining us for this press conference. Together with them we have prepared a document with several demands meant to provide solutions to the problems brought about by the encroachment on public spaces. We will be officially presenting this document during this press conference in hope that the authorities listen to the residents’ pleas and take immediate action. \n\nWe encourage you to join us and these residents to take a stand and make our voices heard against the abuse and theft of public land!

SUMMARY:Konferenza Stampa: Inwaqqfu l-Ħerba fiż-Żurrieq
DESCRIPTION:L-Għaqda Residenti taż-Żurrieq qed torganizza din il-konferenza stampa kontra l-applikazzjoni PC/00068/22 li se tieħu medda kbira ta’ għelieqi bejn iż-Żurrieq u l-Qrendi biex tinbena. \nDawn l-għelieqi għadhom jinħadmu mill-bdiewa sal-ġurnata tal-lum\, u biċċa kbira minn din l-art hi tal-Gvern. L-iżvilupp ta’ din l-art se jkompli jkisser il-karattru rurali taż-Żurrieq\, ikeċċi lill-bdiewa mill-għelieqi\, u jgħarraq il-kwalità tal-ħajja tar-residenti. \nBarra minn hekk iwitti t-triq għal aktar applikazzjonijiet bħal dawn\, bħalma qed jiġri fin-Nigret u f’Bubaqra. \nL-Għaqda Residenti taż-Żurrieq qed titlob li jinbidel il-Pjan Lokali tal-2006. Nemmnu li dan il-pjan issa qadim u m’għadux iwieġeb għall-ħtiġijiet pressanti tal-pajjiż. \nBl-appoġġ tar-residenti nistgħu naslu. Inħeġġu wkoll lill-Kunsill Lokali sabiex niġbdu ħabel wieħed. \nNarawkom is-Sibt 11 ta’ Mejju fil-11:30\, quddiem l-għalqa ta’ wara Tal-Bebbux. Tridu tiġu Triq Napuljun quddiem ix-xatba tal-għalqa.

SUMMARY:Konferenza Stampa - Agħtuna Lura Pjazza San Ġorġ
DESCRIPTION:Pjazza San Ġorġ fir-Rabat\, Għawdex tinsab invażata mill-imwejjed u s-siġġijiet tal-istabbilimenti kummerċjali. Il-pjazza tinsab tant okkupata li mhux biss l-aċċess pubbliku qed jiġi ostakolat\, imma saħansitra anki okkażjonijiet bħal tiġijiet u funerali qed jiġu mxekkla. Fi kliem l-Arċipriet tal-Bażilika ta’ San Ġorġ\, “is-sitwazzjoni issa waslet fix-xifer”. \nNhar is-Sibt\, 15 ta’ Ġunju fil-11am\, se nkunu qed ningħaqdu mal-Arċipriet Joseph Curmi\, ma’ membri mis-Soċjetà Filarmonika La Stella u l-mużew Il-Ħaġar sabiex nagħtu Konferenza Stampa fi Pjazza San Ġorġ dwar din is-sitwazzjoni. L-għaqdiet Għawdix\, Din l-Art Ħelwa – Għawdex\, u l-FAA\, flimkien ma’ gruppi ta’ residenti minn lokalitajiet oħra affettwati se jkunu qed jipparteċipaw ukoll. \nPjazza San Ġorġ hija ta’ kulħadd\, u ħadd m’għandu dritt jaħtaf art pubblika u jagħmilha tiegħu. Il-pjazza ġiet pedonalizzata sabiex titgawda min-nies\, u mhux biex tispiċċa kkapparata mir-regħba ta’ xi wħud. Huwa evidenti li l-famuż bilanċ bejn l-interessi kummerċjali u l-interessi tal-komunità mhuwiex qed jintlaħaq; mhux biss mhux jintlaħaq\, iżda l-miżien qed jegħleb kompletament lejn l-interessi ta’ min jabbuża mill-ispazju pubbliku. \nMinkejja d-diversi tentattivi għal djalogu u kompromess\, l-awtoritajiet responsabbli\, jiġifieri l-Awtorità tal-Artijiet\, l-Awtorità tal-Ippjanar\, u l-Awtorità Maltija għat-Turiżmu\, qed jibqgħu jfarfru r-responsabbiltà tagħhom u jħallu l-abbuż jirrenja f’din il-pjazza. \nIn-nuqqas ta’ azzjoni u infurzar min-naħa tal-awtoritajiet responsabbli qed iwassal biss biex ikompli jinċentiva l-abbuż. Attwalment\, l-erba’ daħliet tal-pjazza jinsabu kollha imblokkati. Is-sitwazzjoni hija tant gravi li min ikollu tieġ jew funeral qed ikollu jitkarrab mal-awtoritajiet u mas-sidien tar-restoranti biex forsi jċaqilqu l-imwejjed u s-siġġijiet. Dan mhuwiex aċċettabbli. \nInħeġġu lill-Għawdxin jingħaqdu magħna għal din il-Konferenza Stampa b’għajta waħda: “Tuna Lura Pjazza San Ġorġ!” \nDin il-Konferenza Stampa tifforma parti mill-kampanja tagħna ‘Il-Bankini taċ-Ċittadini’. Infakkrukom iżżuru s-sit tagħna www.ilbankinitaccittadini.org sabiex taraw x’qed nipproponu. \n****** \nPRESS CONFERENCE – GIVE US BACK ST. GEORGE’S SQUARE \nSt. George’s Square in Rabat\, Gozo is completely taken over by tables and chairs put outside by catering establishments. The square has become totally occupied by catering furniture to the point that not only public access is being obstructed\, but even occasions such as weddings and funerals are being hindered. In the words of the Archpriest of the Basilica of St.George\, “the situation has now reached the brink”. \nOn Saturday\, June 15 at 11am\, we will be joining Archpriest Joseph Curmi\, Soċjetà Filarmonika La Stella and Il-Ħaġar museum to give a Press Conference in St. George’s Square about this situation. The NGOs Għawdix\, Din l-Art Ħelwa – Għawdex and Flimkien għal Ambjent Aħjar (FAA)\, together with groups of residents from other affected localities\, will also be participating. \nSt. George’s Square belongs to everyone\, and no one has the right to grab public land and do whatever they like with it. The pedestrianisation of the square was meant for the people’s enjoyment of the square\, and not for the square to end up being exploited by the greed of some. It is evident that the balance between commercial interests and community interests is not being met. Not only is it not being met\, but it is clear that only the interests of those who abuse public space are being considered. \nDespite the various attempts at dialogue and compromise\, the responsible authorities\, namely the Lands Authority\, the Planning Authority\, and the Maltese Tourism Authority\, continue to shirk their responsibility and let abuse reign free in the square. \nThe lack of action and enforcement on the part of the responsible authorities is only incentivising further abuse. Currently\, the four entrances to the square are all blocked. The situation is so grave that anyone who needs to hold a wedding or a funeral is having to plead with the authorities and restaurant owners to move the tables and chairs. This is not acceptable. \nWe encourage the people of Gozo to join us for this Press Conference to demand that St. George’s Square is given back to the people. \nThis Press Conference forms part of our campaign ‘Il-Bankini taċ-Ċittadini’. We remind you to visit our website www.ilbankinitaccitadini.org to see the demands that we are putting forward.

SUMMARY:Konferenza Stampa: Irridu Diċenza Bażika fl-Ippjanar Issa
DESCRIPTION:Following the recent obscenity which saw the Planning Authority defying Court rulings and sanctioning illegal developments in Sannat\, a number of NGOs are calling a Press Conference in front of Castille to demand urgent and decisive action to restore the rule of law in our country. \nOn Saturday\, 31st August\, we shall be meeting in front of Castille to urge the Prime Minister to take immediate action to put a decisive end to the injustices and absurdities that have become synonymous with our planning system. The Planning Authority has essentially set itself and the developers above the law and the Court\, making a mockery of justice and undermining the rule of law in the process. The implications of all this are extremely serious\, as the very foundations of our democracy have been shaken and citizens are suffering gross injustice. \nIn this Press Conference\, we shall also once again be calling for an immediate reform of the absurd appeals law. After more than one year since the Prime Minister had vowed to reform this flawed law\, the reform has yet to be seen. The current appeals law allows irregular developments to continue unabated while an appeal is underway. This means that once a development is declared illegal following the appeal decision\, the development would have already been completed\, rendering the appeal process totally futile. \nWe encourage you to join us on Saturday\, 31st August at 10am in front of Castille to make our voices heard for basic decency and justice in planning. \n****** \nFid-dawl tal-pastażata riċenti fejn l-Awtorità tal-Ippjanar marret kontra sentenza tal-Qorti tal-Appell u ssanzjonat żvilupp illegali fis-Sannat\, numru ta’ għaqdiet qed isejħu għal Konferenza Stampa quddiem Kastilja sabiex jiġu indirizzati b’urġenza l-implikazzjonijiet serji ta’ dan kollu. \nNhar is-Sibt\, 31 ta’ Awwissu\, se niltaqgħu quddiem Kastilja biex nitolbu lill-Prim Ministru Robert Abela jieħu azzjoni immedjata sabiex dawn l-inġustizzji u l-assurditajiet fis-sistema tal-ippjanar f’pajjiżna jieqfu. L-azzjonijiet tal-Awtorità tal-Ippjanar qed jimminaw is-saltna tad-dritt f’pajjiżna u qed ipoġġu lill-iżviluppaturi ’l fuq mil-liġi u mill-Qrati. Din hija sitwazzjoni perikoluża ħafna li qed ixxejjen il-bażi tad-demokrazija f’pajjiżna u twassal għal inġustizzji kbar lejn il-poplu. \nF’din il-Konferenza Stampa\, se nkunu qegħdin ukoll nerġgħu nitolbu għal riforma immedjata fil-liġi assurda tal-appelli\, li wara ’l fuq minn sena li l-Prim Ministru Robert Abela kien ħabbar li se tidħol fis-seħħ\, din għadha ma seħħitx. Il-liġi assurda tal-appelli qed tippermetti li żviluppi li jkunu ċarament illegali jilħqu jinbnew waqt li jkun qed jinstema’ appell dwarhom. Dan ifisser li meta jinqata’ l-appell u tingħata s-sentenza li l-iżvilupp huwa irregolari\, l-iżvilupp ikun laħaq inbena. Il-proċess tal-appell għalhekk qed jiġi ridott għal wieħed futili. \nInħeġġukom tingħaqdu magħna nhar is-Sibt\, 31 ta’ Awwissu fl-10am quddiem Kastilja sabiex flimkien insemmgħu leħinna favur diċenza bażika u ġustizzja fl-ippjanar. \n****** \nOrganisations/Organizzazzjonijiet: \n\nAzzjoni Tuna Artna Lura\nBirdLife Malta\nDin l-Art Ħelwa\nFlimkien għal Ambjent Aħjar\nFriends of the Earth Malta\nGħawdix\nMoviment Graffitti\nNature Trust Malta\nRamblers Association Malta\nThe Archaeological Society Malta\nWirt Għawdex

SUMMARY:Il-Bankini taċ-Ċittadini: Protest March in Valletta
DESCRIPTION:The issue of tables and chairs that are choking our pavements\, squares and streets needs no introduction. Despite the various promises made by the Government that action will be taken against the excessive encroachment of public spaces by business and to restore public access\, effective action and serious enforcement are still nowhere to be seen. \n5 months after we launched the “Il-Bankini taċ-Ċittadini” campaign together with various residents’ groups\, on Sunday 22nd September we shall be meeting again in Merchants Street to take to the streets of Valletta for a Protest March. We will be passing through some streets in Valletta — that look more like an obstacle course with each passing day — to highlight how safe and public access is practically non-existent. \nThe rampant take-up of public land by business is adding to the deterioration of our quality of life. The various demands put forward by residents’ groups from some of the most affected localities\, who are calling for the current law to be revised and made more robust\, for effective enforcement\, and for transparency in the way encroachment permits are issued\, have largely been ignored by the authorities. \nWe therefore encourage you to join us on Sunday 22nd September to make our voices heard against the abusive takeover of public spaces. \nSee you in Merchants Street at 12.15pm near the MUŻA museum. \nDon’t forget to visit our website “Il-Bankini taċ-Ċittadini” to see the demands put forward by us and the various residents’ groups: https://www.ilbankinitaccittadini.org/ \nResidents’ groups:\nSliema Residents AssociationResidenti BeltinMarsaskala Residents NetworkAzzjoni Tuna Artna LuraMellieħa ResidentsSan Pawl il-Baħar ResidentsMarsaxlokk Heritage Group \n****** \n\nIl-problema tal-imwejjed u s-siġġijiet li qed joħonqu l-bankini\, il-pjazez u t-toroq tagħna qiegħda fuq fomm kulħadd. Minkejja diversi wegħdiet mill-Gvern li se tittieħed azzjoni biex l-ispazji pubbliċi li nħatfu mill-kummerċ jingħataw lura lin-nies\, s’issa għadna ma rajna l-ebda forma ta’ azzjoni effettiva jew infurzar serju. \n5 xhur wara li flimkien ma’ għadd ta’ gruppi ta’ residenti nedejna l-kampanja “Il-Bankini taċ-Ċittadini”\, il-Ħadd 22 ta’ Settembru se nerġgħu niltaqgħu fi Triq il-Merkanti fil-Belt Valletta\, biex minn hemm nagħmlu marċ ta’ protesta tul it-toroq tal-Belt. Se nkunu qed ngħaddu minn uħud mill-aktar toroq affettwati fejn l-aċċess sigur u bla xkiel għan-nies huwa prattikament ineżistenti. \nIl-ħtif tal-ispazji pubbliċi tagħna mill-kummerċ issa qabeż kull limitu aċċettabbli. Id-diversi talbiet tal-għaqdiet tar-residenti li ġejjin mill-aktar lokalitajiet affettwati għal reviżjoni u tisħiħ tal-liġi attwali\, għal infurzar serju\, u għal trasparenza fil-mod kif jingħataw il-permessi għal okkupazzjoni ta’ art pubblika baqgħu qatt ma ġew indirizzati mill-awtoritajiet. \nGħalhekk\, inħeġġukom biex il-Ħadd 22 ta’ Settembru tingħaqdu magħna sabiex insemmgħu leħinna mat-toroq tal-Belt kontra t-teħid bla rażan tal-ispazji pubbliċi tagħna. \nNarawkom fi Triq il-Merkanti fil-12.15pm ħdejn il-mużew MUŻA. \nInfakkrukom iżżuru s-sit tagħna “Il-Bankini taċ-Ċittadini” fejn tistgħu taraw it-talbiet li ressaqna flimkien mal-għaqdiet tar-residenti: https://www.ilbankinitaccittadini.org/ \nGħaqdiet tar-residenti:\nGħaqda Residenti SlimiżiResidenti BeltinMarsaskala Residents NetworkAzzjoni Tuna Artna LuraResidenti MelliħinResidenti San Pawl il-BaħarMarsaxlokk Heritage Group

SUMMARY:Fort Chambray: The Truth we Cannot Demolish
DESCRIPTION:Is-saga tal-Forti Chambray\, li ilha sejra għal aktar minn 30 sena\, dejjem kienet ikkaratterizzata minn għadd ta’ kontroversji u deċiżjonijiet dubjużi. \nFit-12 ta’ Diċembru li għadda\, il-PA approvat it-tkissir tal-Barracks tal-Ingliżi fil-Forti Chambray u l-iżvilupp tal-Forti f’kumpless mostruż ta’ appartamenti\, aparthotel u stabbilimenti kummerċjali. \nIl-miżinformazzjoni madwar dan il-proġett hija waħda kbira. Il-poplu għandu dritt ikun jaf il-verità biex ikun kapaċi jifforma opinjoni infurmata. \nPereżempju\, huwa minnu li l-poplu se jkun jista’ jaċċessa l-Forti Chambray wara li dan jiġi żviluppat? Min se jkun qed iħallas għar-restawr tal-Forti Chambray\, il-Gvern jew l-iżviluppaturi? Il-pedamenti tal-Forti Chambray\, li huwa mibni fuq għolja tat-tafal\, huma sodi biżżejjed biex jifilħu dan l-iżvilupp? U l-Barracks tal-Ingliżi\, x’se jiġri minnhom? \nIngħaqdu magħna nhar is-Sibt 8 ta’ Frar fl-10.30am għal taħdita pubblika fejn se nkunu qed inwieġbu dawn il-mistoqsijiet u aktar. \n****** \nThe 30-year Fort Chambray saga has always been characterised by controversy and questionable decisions. \nOn 12 December 2024\, the PA approved the demolition of the British Barracks and the development of Fort Chambray into a monstrous complex of apartments\, an aparthotel and commercial establishments. \nThe misinformation that surrounds this project is robbing people of their right to know the truth. The public has the right to know the facts about the project to be able to form an informed opinion. \nFor instance\, will the public be able to access Fort Chambray once it is developed? Who will be financially responsible for the Fort’s restoration\, the Government or the developers? Are the Fort’s clay foundations stable enough for such a massive development? What will become of the British Barracks? \nJoin us on Saturday 8 February at 10.30am for a public talk where we will be answering these questions and more.

SUMMARY:Manoel Island: Post Għalina - Campaign Launch
DESCRIPTION:Manoel Island can be a place for all of us to enjoy. It is possible – but we only have a short window of opportunity to act. \nThe concession between the Maltese Parliament and MIDI to develop Manoel Island into a residential and commercial hub is currently being renegotiated. This campaign aims to put the issue of Manoel Island back on the national agenda. We stand at a crossroads\, a unique point in time where the future of Manoel Island is being questioned. Will it be used for commercial development\, turned into luxury residences\, a hotel\, a casino or can it become a landmark park for all to enjoy in the most urbanised part of Malta? \nDo you want to see more accessible public spaces in Malta? Join us for the launch of this campaign on Saturday 29th March at 10am! \nhttps://maps.app.goo.gl/KnkwouGpeLBA263C9 \n****** \nManoel Island jista’ jkun post li ngawduh kollha kemm aħna. Din mhijiex xi ħaġa impossibbli — iżda għandna biss tieqa żgħira ta’ opportunità u rridu naġixxu malajr. \nIl-konċessjoni bejn il-Parlament Malti u l-MIDI biex Manoel Island tiġi żviluppata f’binjiet residenzjali u kummerċjali bħalissa qed tiġi nnegozjata mill-ġdid. L-għan ta’ din il-kampanja\, għalhekk\, huwa li nerġgħu nitfgħu lil Manoel Island fuq l-aġenda nazzjonali. Ninsabu f’salib it-toroq\, f’mument uniku fejn il-futur ta’ Manoel Island qed jerġa’ jinfetaħ għal possibbiltajiet oħra. Se tintuża għal żvilupp kummerċjali u narawha tinbidel f’residenzi lussużi\, lukanda\, u każinò? Jew tista’ ssir park nazzjonali għal kulħadd li jagħti nifs ġdid fl-aktar żona urbanizzata ta’ Malta? \nTixtieq tara aktar spazji pubbliċi aċċessibbli f’Malta? Mela ejja ngħaqad magħna s-Sibt 29 ta’ Marzu fl-10am għat-tnedija ta’ din il-kampanja! \nhttps://maps.app.goo.gl/KnkwouGpeLBA263C9

SUMMARY:Gig Għal Gżira - Manoel Island Post Għalina
DESCRIPTION:*TICKETS: https://fienta.com/manoel-island-sr* \nThe ‘Manoel Island Post Għalina’ Campaign seeks to bring the Manoel Island issue back to light at a time when the concession between the Maltese Parliament and MIDI is being renegotiated. We’re proposing a renegotiation that would turn Manoel Island into a national park instead of private apartments. This event is to raise funds for that campaign\, which\, of course\, has its costs. The money raised during this event will go directly back into the campaign\, and all musicians and event organisers involved are volunteers. For more information on the campaign itself\, visit https://www.manoelislandcampaign.com. \nEyes to Argus\, Karmaġenn (solo) and Marie Claire are well-known and loved by the local alternative music scene and have performed at Storeroom in the past. They’ve lovingly agreed to play as a contribution to the campaign. \nAdmission: €10Date: Sunday 18th MayTime: 8 PM

SUMMARY:X'qed jigri f'Villa Rosa? Laqgħa ta' informazzjoni għar-residenti
DESCRIPTION:It-tibdil propost fil-Pjan Lokali għas-sit ta’ Villa Rosa se jkollu impat enormi fuq il-lokalitajiet ta’ Pembroke\, is-Swieqi\, u San Ġiljan. \nSkont il-pjan rivedut propost\, jistgħu jitilgħu binjiet li jaslu sa 39 sular\, flimkien ma’ żewġ torrijiet addizzjonali ta’ 22 sular li se jidfnu għalkollox il-Bajja ta’ San Ġorġ u jordmu lir-residenti tal-madwar. L-impronta tal-iżvilupp se tikber għal madwar 146\,500 metru kwadru – intensifikazzjoni estrema li se tħalli impatt serju fuq il-komunitajiet fil-qrib u l-infrastruttura pubblika. \nQed inħeġġu lir-residenti ta’ dawn il-lokalitajiet biex jattendu laqgħa pubblika fejn ser nispjegaw x’qed jiġri fil-kwistjoni ta’ Villa Rosa\, x’ħa jkunu l-impatti tat-tibdil fil-Pjan Lokali\, u x’nistgħu nagħmlu dwarhom. \nPost: BMX Warehouse\, PembrokeData: Il-Ġimgħa 19 ta’ Settembru\, 6.00PM \nNarawkom hemm! \n****** \nWhat’s happening at Villa Rosa? Information meeting for residents \nThe proposed changes to the Local Plan for the Villa Rosa site will have a huge impact on the localities of Pembroke\, Swieqi\, and St Julian’s. \nAccording to the revised plan\, buildings of up to 39 storeys could rise\, alongside two additional towers of 22 storeys\, which would completely bury St George’s Bay and suffocate nearby residents. The development footprint would expand to around 146\,500 square metres — an extreme intensification with a devastating impact on nearby communities and public infrastructure. \nWe are urging the residents of these localities to attend a public meeting where we will explain what is happening regarding Villa Rosa\, what the impacts of the changes to the Local Plan will be\, and what we can do about them. \nLocation: BMX Warehouse\, PembrokeDate: Friday\, 19th September\, 6:00 PM \nSee you there!

SUMMARY:Ġustizzja għal Artna: Irtirawhom Issa! - KONFERENZA STAMPA
DESCRIPTION:Nhar it-Tnejn\, 29 ta’ Settembru fis-6pm\, se niltaqgħu quddiem l-Awtorità tal-Ippjanar sabiex nispjegaw ir-raġunijiet għaliex qed insejħu għal protesta nazzjonali nhar is-Sibt 4 ta’ Ottubru\, u t-talbiet urġenti tagħna quddiem sitwazzjoni gravi ħafna. \nF’Lulju li għadda\, il-Gvern ippreżenta żewġ liġijiet li se jneħħu s-salvagwardji kollha li għandna fil-qasam tal-ippjanar. Wara ftit ġimgħat\, ġiet ukoll ippubblikata l-proposta ta’ tliet avviżi legali li se jagħtu amnestija lil kull tip ta’ illegalità madwar Malta u Għawdex\, mingħajr lanqas biss limitu fuq daqs\, skop jew post. \nMinkejja li l-poplu rnexxielu jwaqqaf lill-Gvern milli jgħaddi dawn il-liġijiet inkiss inkiss f’nofs is-sajf\, dawn għadhom hemm\, u nafu li l-Gvern se jipprova jsib l-ewwel opportunità biex jgħaddihom. \nGħalhekk\, qed inħeġġukom tattendu għall-Konferenza Stampa ta’ nhar it-Tnejn fejn se nuru kemm it-theddida għalina\, għal pajjiżna\, u għal uliedna hija kbira u teħtieġ ir-reżistenza kollettiva tal-poplu biex flimkien inwaqqfu dan il-kolp ta’ stat mill-iżviluppaturi. \nXerrdu l-kelma! \nĠustizzja għal Artna: Irtirawhom ISSA! \nwww.gustizzjartna.org \n****** \nOn Monday\, 29th September at 6pm\, we will gather in front of the Planning Authority to explain the reasons why we are calling the national protest on Saturday\, 4th October\, and to present our urgent demands in the face of a very serious situation. \nLast July\, the Government presented two laws that would remove all safeguards in the planning sector. A few weeks later\, a proposal for three legal notices was also published\, which would grant amnesty to all forms of illegalities across Malta and Gozo\, without any limits on size\, type\, or location. \nAlthough the people managed to stop the Government from passing these laws by stealth in the middle of summer\, they are still on the table\, and we know that the Government will try to seize the first opportunity to pass them. \nThis is why we are urging you to attend Monday’s press conference\, where we will show just how great the threat is – to us\, to our country\, and to our children – and how it demands the collective resistance of the people to stop this developers’ coup from being carried out. \nSpread the word. \nĠustizzja għal Artna: Kill the Bills!

SUMMARY:Ġustizzja għal Artna: Iritrawhom Issa! - PROTESTA NAZZJONALI
DESCRIPTION:A national protest\, Ġustizzja għal Artna: Irtirawhom Issa!\, is being called for Saturday 4th October at 10am in response to the total assault on our environment and quality of life being pushed through under the guise of a planning “reform”. \nThe need for action is urgent and dire. Government is intent on forcing through two planning bills and three legal notices that will dismantle existing safeguards\, place serious obstacles to effective public appeals\, and regularise all kinds of illegalities across the country. \nIf this legal package is approved\, Malta and Gozo will be ruled entirely by the wishes of developers\, while the common people will be left under siege from harmful development permitted without even today’s minimal regulatory controls and scrutiny. \nThis is a grave threat to our country\, and only the people’s resistance can fend it off. \nOur demands are: \n\nThe immediate withdrawal of the draft bills and legal notices. Consultation cannot take place on legislation that is fundamentally flawed\, malicious in intent\, and beyond repair.\nThe urgent introduction of a measure suspending works on developments approved by the Planning Authority while an appeal is ongoing\, through an amendment to existing law.\nThe publication of a White Paper to launch a genuine consultation on the broader planning reforms Malta truly needs.\n\nPeople will gather at the Law Courts at 10am and march to Castille\, where speeches will take place. \nThe national protest is the first action announced as part of the Ġustizzja għal Artna campaign launched last week. Groups across Malta and Gozo\, both formal and informal\, are invited to join the protest and the campaign by emailing info@gustizzjartna.org. \nMore information about the campaign and its demands can be found at www.gustizzjartna.org. \nBirdLife Malta | Din l-Art Ħelwa | Flimkien għal Ambjent Aħjar | Friends of the Earth Malta | Front Żgħażagħ għall-Ambjent | Għawdix | Moviment Graffitti | Nature Trust – FEE Malta | Ramblers Association | Wirt Għawdex \n****** \nSe ssir protesta nazzjonali\, Ġustizzja għal Artna: Irtirawhom Issa!\, nhar is-Sibt 4 ta’ Ottubru fl-10am bħala reazzjoni għall-attakk totali fuq l-ambjent u l-kwalità tal-ħajja tagħna\, li qed jiġi ppreżentat bħala taparsi “riforma” tal-ippjanar. \nIl-ħtieġa għall-azzjoni hija urġenti u serja. Il-Gvern jinsab determinat li jmexxi ’l quddiem żewġ abbozzi ta’ liġi dwar l-ippjanar\, u tliet avviżi legali\, li se jeqirdu l-protezzjonijiet eżistenti\, joħolqu ostakli serji għall-appelli effettivi mill-pubbliku\, u jirregolarizzaw kull tip ta’ illegalitajiet madwar il-pajjiż. \nJekk dan il-pakkett legali jiġi approvat\, Malta u Għawdex se jkunu mmexxija kompletament mir-rieda tal-iżviluppaturi\, filwaqt li n-nies komuni jispiċċaw taħt assedju minn żvilupp ta’ ħsara li se jkun permess saħansitra mingħajr il-kontroll u l-iskrutinju minimu li jeżisti llum. \nDin hija theddida gravi għal pajjiżna\, u hija biss ir-reżistenza tal-poplu li tista’ twaqqafha. \nIt-talbiet tagħna huma: \n\nL-irtirar immedjat tal-abbozzi ta’ liġi u l-avviżi legali. Ma tistax issir konsultazzjoni dwar leġiżlazzjoni li hija fundamentalment difettuża\, malizzjuża fl-intenzjoni tagħha\, u li ma tistax tissewwa.\nL-introduzzjoni urġenti ta’ miżura li tissospendi x-xogħlijiet ta’ żviluppi approvati mill-Awtorità tal-Ippjanar waqt li jkun għaddej appell\, permezz ta’ emenda għal-liġi eżistenti.\nIl-pubblikazzjoni ta’ White Paper biex titnieda konsultazzjoni ġenwina dwar ir-riformi usa’ tal-ippjanar li Malta verament teħtieġ.\n\nIn-nies se jinġabru quddiem il-Qorti fl-10am u jimxu lejn Kastilja\, fejn se jsiru xi diskorsi. \nIl-protesta nazzjonali hija l-ewwel azzjoni mħabbra bħala parti mill-kampanja Ġustizzja għal Artna li ġiet imnedija l-ġimgħa li għaddiet.

SUMMARY:Ġustizzja Għal Artna: Flimkien\, Inwaqqfuhom! - PROTESTA
DESCRIPTION:Il-kampanja Ġustizzja għal Artna qed issejjaħ lin-nies biex jerġgħu jingħaqdu fi protesta t-Tnejn\, is-27 ta’ Ottubru. Il-protesta se tibda fil-5.30pm minn quddiem il-Qorti u tibqa’ miexja lejn il-Parlament. \nRipetutament stqarrejna li nippreferu npoġġu madwar mejda u niddiskutu r-riformi urġenti li pajjiżna għandu bżonn fil-qasam tal-ambjent u l-ippjanar. Madankollu\, minkejja l-għajta tal-poplu għal ġustizzja — inklużi dawk l-eluf li s-Sibt\, 4 ta’ Ottubru ħarġu jipprotestaw fit-toroq tal-Belt — il-Prim Ministru Robert Abela qed jibqa’ jirrifjuta li jisma’ lill-poplu. \nL-hekk imsejħa “riforma” tal-ippjanar hija mannara mdendla fuq għonq in-nies. Il-fatt li din il-protesta se taħbat mal-jum li fih jiġi ppreżentat il-Baġit mhuwiex kumbinazzjoni. Il-messaġġ tagħna huwa ċar: dan mhuwiex ‘business as usual’. \nIż-żewġ abbozzi tal-ippjanar u t-tliet avviżi legali jippreżentaw theddida imminenti għall-postijiet li huma l-aktar għal qalbna\, għall-komunitajiet tagħna\, għall-ġustizzja soċjali\, u għad-demokrazija. \nSe jżarmaw is-salvagwardji eżistenti kollha kontra l-iżvilupp bla rażan billi jneħħu s-saħħa effettiva tar-regolamenti tal-ippjanar u jagħtu kontroll assolut lill-Awtorità korrotta tal-Ippjanar. \nId-dritt tal-pubbliku li jappella deċiżjonijiet illegali b’mod effettiv se jiġi severament limitat\, u l-Qorti se titlef is-setgħa tagħha li tirrevoka permessi illegali. \nL-avviżi legali se jagħtu amnestija totali għal kull xorta ta’ illegalità li saret sas-sena l-oħra\, b’ebda limitu fuq it-tip\, id-daqs jew il-post li fih saret. \nNemmnu bis-sħiħ li n-nies għandhom is-saħħa li jwaqqfu dan l-attakk fuq il-kwalità tal-ħajja tagħhom. Għalhekk qed nerġgħu nsejħu lill-pubbliku biex insaħħu din il-ġlieda kontra l-bullies ta’ dan il-pajjiż — dawk li jemmnu li l-flus jagħtuhom id-dritt li jirfsu fuq iċ-ċittadini komuni. \nIt-Tnejn 27 ta’ Ottubru\, se nerġgħu nuruhom li aħna mhux se naċċettaw li ngħixu taħt il-ħakma tal-iżviluppaturi. \nFlimkien\, inwaqqfuhom! \nwww.gustizzjartna.org \n****** \nThe Ġustizzja għal Artna campaign is calling on the people to join a protest on Monday 27th October. The protest will start at 5:30pm from the Law Courts and move towards Parliament. \nWe have repeatedly stated that we would much rather sit around a table to discuss the urgent planning and environmental reforms our country needs. However\, despite the people’s cry for justice\, including the thousands who took to the streets on Saturday 4th October\, Prime Minister Robert Abela continues to refuse to listen. \nThis so-called planning reform is a Damocles’ sword hanging over the people’s heads. It is no coincidence that this protest will coincide with the presentation of the annual Budget. Our message is clear: this is not business as usual. \nThe two planning bills and three legal notices pose an imminent threat to our most cherished places\, our communities\, social justice\, and democracy. \nThey would dismantle all existing protections against unbridled construction by rendering planning regulations ineffective and placing full control in the hands of the corrupt Planning Authority. \nThey would also severely undermine the public’s right to effectively appeal illegal decisions\, and strip the Court of its power to revoke illegal permits. \nAdditionally\, the legal notices would grant a blanket amnesty for all sorts of illegalities committed up to last year\, with no limits on type\, size\, or location. \nWe strongly believe that the people have the power to stop this assault on their quality of life and are the last lines of defence against the greed of developers. Thus\, we call on the public to intensify this fight against the bullies of this country – those who believe that money gives them the right to trample over the common citizen. \nOn Monday 27th October\, we’ll show once again that we refuse to live under the reign of developers. \nTogether\, we’ll stop them! \nwww.gustizzjartna.org

The draft laws and legal notices presented by the Government seek to dismantle all existing protections in order to grant developers unlimited power. \nWe encourage you to visit our stand so that we may have the opportunity to speak with you about the impact of these alarming laws on Malta in general and on the locality of Birżebbuġa in particular\, as well as to receive your comments and suggestions. \nSee you there!

SUMMARY:Ġustizzja Għal Artna: Ir-Riformi li Neħtieġu
DESCRIPTION:Il-kampanja favur Ġustizzja għal Artna se tkompli\, u mill-ġdid qed nitolbu l-appoġġ sħiħ tagħkom. \nNhar is-Sibt\, 11 ta’ April\, se nniedu Ġustizzja għal Artna: Ir-Riformi li Neħtieġu. Filwaqt li se ntennu t-talba tagħna sabiex jiġu rtirati ż-żewġ abbozzi tal-liġi u t-tliet avviżi legali li ressaq il-Gvern\, se nippreżentaw ukoll il-proposti tagħna għal riforma fl-ippjanar ta’ veru\, imsejsa fuq l-interessi ta’ pajjiżna u mhux l-interessi tal-iżviluppaturi. \nIlna snin twal nitolbu b’mod urġenti riforma fl-ippjanar li tindirizza l-ħerba li għandna fl-ippjanar\, fl-ambjent u fil-kwalità tal-ħajja tagħna – minn bini bl-addoċċ sa kummerċ bla rażan\, assalt fuq il-biedja\, u qerda tal-ambjent naturali. \nGħalhekk\, meta f’Lulju li għadda l-Gvern ippreżenta l-hekk imsejħa riforma fl-ippjanar\, li fil-fatt kienet lista tax-xewqat tal-iżviluppaturi\, ir-rabja ta’ ħafna nies kellha żewġ aspetti: dawn il-liġijiet mhux biss kienu se jżarmaw il-protezzjoni li għad fadal mir-regħba tal-ftit\, imma kienu wkoll opportunità mitlufa biex isiru r-riformi li veru neħtieġu. \nIngħaqdu magħna għal konferenza stampa nhar is-Sibt\, 11 ta’ April\, fl-10.30am\, quddiem Kastilja\, sabiex nuru li l-poplu jrid riforma li tħares il-ġid komuni. Se nippreżentaw erba’ proposti fl-oqsma ta’: l-appelli fl-ippjanar\, l-infurzar\, is-sanzjonar fl-ODZ\, u l-klassifikazzjoni ta’ art bħala ODZ. \nNarawkom. \nwww.gustizzjartna.org \nThe campaign in favor of justice for our land will continue\, and once again we are asking for your full support. \nOn Saturday\, 11 April\, we will launch Ġustizzja għal Artna: The Reforms We Need. While we will reiterate our call for the withdrawal of the two bills and the three legal notices put forward by the Government\, we will also present our proposals for genuine planning reform\, based on the interests of our country rather than those of developers. \nFor many years\, we have been urgently calling for planning reform that addresses the mess we are facing in planning\, the environment\, and our quality of life — from unbridled construction to unrestrained commercial activity\, attacks on agriculture\, and the destruction of the natural environment. \nTherefore\, when last July the Government presented the so-called planning reform\, which in reality was a developers’ wish list\, many people’s anger had two dimensions: these laws would not only dismantle what little protection remains from the greed of a few\, but they also represented a missed opportunity to implement the reforms we truly need. \nJoin us for a Press Conference on Saturday\, 11 April\, at 10:30am\, in front of Castille\, to show that the people want reforms for the common good. We will present four proposals in the areas of: planning appeals\, enforcement\, sanctioning in ODZ areas\, and the classification of land as ODZ. \nSee you there. \nwww.gustizzjartna.org

SUMMARY:Tgħaddux Gaffa Minn Fuq Pembroke - Konferenza Stampa
DESCRIPTION:Bħalissa hemm pjanijiet li ser ibiddlu radikalment għall-agħar il-ħajja f’Pembroke. Medda kbira ta’ art pubblika u mhux mimsusa fl-inħawi ta’ Triq Gabriel Henin mistennija tingħata lil tliet klabbs tal-futbol biex jinbena kumpless sportiv: \nŻewġ grawnds tal-futbol full-size\, b’wieħed minnhom jesa’ iktar minn 2\,000 spettatur\, u bosta faċilitajiet oħra.Dawn se jkunu jistgħu jintużaw għal attivitajiet tal-massa\, bħal kunċerti\, u mhux biss għall-isports.Artijiet li jingħataw għall-isport jistgħu wkoll jospitaw faċilitajiet kummerċjali – minn lukandi u djar tal-anzjani\, sa shopping malls u ristoranti. \nIngħaqdu magħna nhar is-Sibt\, 23 ta’ Mejju\, fil-11am – ġewwa Triq Gabriel Henin – għal konferenza stampa mir-residenti. \nŻvilupp massiċċ ta’ din ix-xorta\, biswit id-djar tar-residenti\, fuq art verġni\, u ħdejn sit tan-Natura 2000\, se jkollu effetti devastanti\, fosthom: \nTniġġis qawwi bid-dawl u l-istorbjuProblemi kbar ta’ traffiku biex tidħol u toħroġ minn PembrokeQerda tal-art naturaliĦerba fil-kwalità ta’ ħajjitna u fit-tgawdija ta’ djarna \nPembroke diġà jinsab assedjat minn żviluppi mostrużi. Pembroke se jsir Paceville ieħor. Pembroke ma jiflaħx iktar. \nFaċilitajiet sportivi jistgħu jsiru f’żoni alternattivi: mingħajr ma tinqered in-natura\, u mingħajr ma tinħoloq ħerba fil-kwalità tal-ħajja tar-residenti. \nNarawkom hemm! \n***** \nPlans are currently underway that will radically transform life in Pembroke for the worse. A vast stretch of public\, untouched land in the Gabriel Henin Street area is expected to be handed over to three football clubs for the construction of a sports complex: \nTwo full-size football pitches\, one of which will accommodate over 2\,000 spectators\, along with numerous other facilities.These venues will be available for mass events\, such as concerts\, and not just for sports.Land granted for sporting purposes can also host commercial facilities — ranging from hotels and retirement homes to shopping malls and restaurants. \nJoin us on Saturday\, May 23rd\, at 11:00am – in Gabriel Henin Street – for a press conference by the residents. \nA massive development of this nature\, right next to residents’ homes\, on virgin land\, and adjacent to a Natura 2000 site\, will have devastating effects\, including: \nIntense light and noise pollutionMajor traffic congestion when entering and exiting PembrokeThe destruction of natural landThe ruin of our quality of life and the enjoyment of our homes \nPembroke is already under siege from monstrous developments. Pembroke is set to become another Paceville. Pembroke can take no more. \nSports facilities can be built in alternative areas: without destroying nature\, and without wreaking havoc on the residents’ quality of life. \nSee you there!
