A major planning decision in Mosta has seen a case officer recommend approval for a large, eight-storey care home, despite an assessment highlighting significant adverse visual impacts on the area. This development comes amidst ongoing scrutiny of planning policies and their environmental implications.
Meanwhile, Malta's property market continues its upward trend, with new data revealing substantial increases in asking prices. Terraced houses have seen an average rise of €104,000 over the past year, while apartment prices have climbed by 10%, according to a KPMG study. In other news, a man is in critical condition following a motorcycle collision in Mosta.
On a positive note, Malta's hosting of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2026 achieved record-breaking online viewership, attracting 231 million views. Elsewhere, environmental concerns have been raised as slurry from a batching plant in Luqa was observed seeping into a nearby valley, and Valletta is set to receive €750,000 to fund 25 Christmas events.
