Yesterday, the Mayor of Qala, Paul Buttigieg, expressed his frustration with the local developer’s lack of responsibility, which resulted in construction dust and debris being washed across a major road after heavy rainfall. The situation worsened on Monday morning when residue from a nearby building site was swept across the street due to the downpour.
Buttigieg shared his dissatisfaction in a video uploaded to Facebook, calling the situation “completely unacceptable.” He emphasized that the developer must now take responsibility for cleaning up the mess.
Following the incident, Buttigieg provided an update, stating, “After a timely intervention by the inspectors of the Building & Construction Authority, the contractors were ordered to clean the affected roads and to carry out remedial work to prevent such inconvenience from happening again to the people of Qala.”
He reassured residents that both he and the local council would continue to apply pressure on the developers to prevent any future incidents.
