Section 58 of the Development Planning Act, 2016

The Planning Authority considers that the following property:

Nri 186 u 187, Triq il-Kbira u (garaxxijiet) Wesgħet Ġużi Tanti;

Nru. 188 Palazzina Vincenti, Triq il-Kbira

u (garaxxijiet) Triq Ġorġ Borg Olivier u (garaxxijiet)

Wesgħet Ġużi Tanti; Nru. 6 (u garaxxijiet)

Triq Ġorġ Borg Olivier, San Ġiljan

(see site plan on page 16,539) is of historical, architectural and contextual value such that it should be listed as a Scheduled Property in terms of Article 57 of the Development Planning Act 2016.

The Authority feels that this property is to be considered as “heritage at risk". This term refers to those sites that are more at risk of being lost as a result of neglect, decay or inappropriate development. The loss or partial loss of the property will result in the irreversible loss of cultural heritage. Thus, the Authority is hereby issuing an Emergency Conservation Order (ECO) in respect of the above property in accordance with Article 58 of the Development Planning Act 2016. The scheduling of this property has not been concluded and therefore it is deemed essential that an ECO be published until the scheduling is concluded.

(i) The property is to be considered as Grade 1 scheduled property as per SPED paragraph 1.13 by virtue of its historical, architectural, and contextual values.

(ii) Damage, demolition, development, dumping or movement of earth or removal of stones, excavations, or alterations, including fittings and apertures, within or nearby any part of the building is prohibited.

(iii) All uses within the aforementioned property are to be covered by a valid permit from the Planning Authority.

(iv) All developments, alterations or interventions on this property, which might be permissible, must be approved in advance by the Planning Authority in consultation with the Superintendence of Cultural Heritage.

(v) The works shall be monitored by the Planning Authority and Superintendence of Cultural Heritage at the expense of the owner.

(vi) The maintenance of the said building shall be exclusively the responsibility of the owner by means of a continuous maintenance programme.

The Order shall have effect for a period of 12 months from the date of publication of this order. In accordance with Section 58 (4) of the Act, any appeal to the Tribunal from this Emergency Conservation Order shall not stay the execution of such order.

All restoration works have to follow respective criteria established by the Council of Europe and UNESCO in their Conventions, Charters and Protocols, to which Malta is signatory.

If the property is further damaged, altered, demolished or destroyed in contravention of this Order, the Authority will exercise its powers of enforcement as set out in the Development Planning Act, 2016. The Act provides for severe penalties for contraventions on Scheduled Property.

Notice is hereby given that I have received an application for the registration of and/or amendment to rules regulating the following condominia:

Dr Claude Sapiano, LLD

Land Registrar
