The Taipei City Government would not let the Taipei Dome construction project easily pass an urban planning review, but it has given contractor Farglory Land Development Co suggestions, Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-je (柯文哲) said yesterday.
Ko was responding to questions about a feature report on the project published by Chinese-language Mirror Media magazine yesterday.
The build-operate-transfer project was in May 2015 halted by the city government over safety concerns and unauthorized changes. To continue construction, Farglory must resubmit its design and pass an urban planning review.
