40,000 homes set to be made legal in Málaga province
The properties are in the Axarquía, Marbella, Mijas and Mijas Costa
The Málaga provincial Government, La Diputación, together with Marbella and Mijas Town Halls, has announced plans to bring 40,000 houses built illegally into legality.
The properties include those in inland Axarquía as well as those along the coast, with the President of the Diputación, Salvador Pendón, saying on Tuesday that the illegally built property could be saved in the Axarquía, but that he did not understand why talk in the region was of ‘charging the Mayors’ when in Marbella alone the talk is of 30,000 homes being legalized.
Pendón said that the Regional Council for Territorial Planning and Housing Department was ‘implicated’ in a favourable solution, as they have seen ‘certain possibilities of doing so’. Demolitions are only likely in ‘certain concrete cases’.
La Opinión de Málaga reports that Mayor of Marbella, Ángeles Muñoz, has given an undertaking that there will be no demolitions, while in Mijas the Mayor, Antonio Sánchez, has announced that no more fines will be issued while the new PGOU Urban Plan is being revised.
However the latest PGOU draft plan for Marbella was returned to the Town Hall for its second approval this week. Approval is expected next month, and 18,000 homes will thus be brought into legality. However La Opinión reports that this draft does not include some 1,000 illegally built homes in the municipality, including 400 which are described by Muñoz as being ‘especially sensitive’ given that they have been occupied for years. They are the 300 or so apartments in Banana Beach, and two developments in El Alcate and Rio Real.
Meanwhile it has been revealed that the Junta de Andalucía is to authorize as many as 4,000 new homes to the north of the motorway in Rincón de la Victoria, although an urbanization of 500 villas has been rejected.
