New public investigation into Islamic community center in Menen

A new public inquiry is underway in Menen regarding the establishment of an Islamic community center in the former decoration shop Dekens. The environmental permit was previously denied due to over 600 objections, primarily concerning increased traffic and parking issues. The association behind the center, vzw Attawba, has appealed the decision and submitted a revised proposal, prompting the new inquiry. Opposition party N-VA continues to oppose the project and encourages residents to file objections.
