      “ whilst protecting the rights of the bond holders “ ( his words ). In other words he’ll cancel the concession with MIDI and award it to “ tal-Franciz” with an increased footprint of public spaces. This is what will happen.

      The main issue with the Manoel Island development is the amount of land being turned into apartments, and how little is being left as green space.

      During the open day recently I had a close look at the revised masterplan posters, and if you look closely you’ll see that the apartment area starts less than 10 meters away from the outer fortifications, where as currently there is a 100-200 open green space in between.

      It would seem like the best action would be a compromise whereby development is restive to only the walled in area south of the ship yard be developed – but as always each side is all or nothing. Public wants full national park whilst Midi wants full overdevelopment. 

      Midi loses points however for their blatently scammy “revised” plan that they claimed results in only a small section being developed, but in reality would still ruin the islands tranquility.
