Please help save Hondoq from development – SOS Hondoq

Published on www.gozonews.com on Monday 3rd May, 2010.

As you may know, the tranquility of Hondoq ir-Rummien is being threatened by an application for a massive project, which includes a large hotel, villas, apartments, shops and a yacht marina.

Gozo cannot afford to turn Hondoq ir-Rummien in another commercialised area like Xlendi, Marsalforn and Imgarr, for it deprives people of places to relax in contact with nature away from the usual stress of their urban surroundings Such a project will also detract from Gozo’s unspoilt appeal and will therefore be detrimental to tourism in Gozo.

MEPA is asking the public to submit comments regarding the Environment Impact Statement (EIS) before the 12th May 2010. We took the liberty of writing a standard letter, which we are asking you to kindly submit to MEPA.

We call on everyone to help us ensure that Hondoq remains part of our natural heritage, as planned prior to the 2006 Gozo Local Plan – please let your voice be heard by clicking hereand signing our online letter..

Our aim is for Hondoq to remain for everyone to enjoy.

Thank you for your support,
