Trauma Centre applies to stop illegal development

THE Trauma Centre Hospital has filed a High Court chamber application seeking to stop a property developer from constructing expansive office buildings in a residential area in Borrowdale, Harare.

Vislink (Private) Limited, trading as Trauma Centre Hospital and Panelope Beattie jointly filed the application citing Condev Property Developers, director of Urban Planning at City of Harare, City of Harare and Andrew Herbst as respondents.

In the application, Trauma Centre Hospital argued that the development will expose members of the public to a serious hazard, which compromises the safety of patients and staff at one of Harare’s leading emergency trauma facilities.
