Schaerbeek Rejects Josaphat Urbanization Project After 15,000 Complaints

The Schaerbeek municipal college issued a majority unfavorable opinion on the Eiffage-AXA urbanization project for the Josaphat wasteland, following a public inquiry that drew nearly 15,000 complaints. The project, covering 6.76 hectares with up to 537 homes, now faces likely rejection, though the final decision rests with regional authorities. This marks a significant local setback for the developer and reflects strong community opposition to the plan.
