The company Avícola Son Perot SA intends to carry out the construction of a new poultry farm for egg production on a plot located in the municipal district of Manacor, near the residential area of Son Talent, following the Ma-3322 road.

"It is an incredible lack of humanity and dignity. That the Administration wants to know nothing about it nor provides any effective solution in such a complicated moment says very little about their education and their little desire to fix it. It makes you want to take the deceased to the City Council and have them deal with it," criticizes Andreu Galmés from Manacor, grandson of a grandmother who this Tuesday midday was buried in the public cemetery of Manacor, far from her husband and far from the family's wishes, due to the lack of security and the closure of the family tomb. "And because the insurance we paid has provided us with another one, because the City Council only offered us a niche on a rental basis, without ensuring that my grandmother's remains can return where they belong."

Terraferida has filed a complaint with the Ministry of the Sea and Water Cycle of the Government so that it investigates the consumption of water resources generated by a farm in Manacor and another in Llucmajor that have individual golf courses.

The social and literary legacy of Jaume Santandreu i Sureda takes shape with the creation of the Foundation that bears his name. An entity that will be based in Manacor, in the Barracar neighborhood, and that is conceived and committed to preserving and disseminating both Santandreu's work in the field of social exclusion in Mallorca (with the aim of continuing the legacy started at Can Gazà) and his literary legacy.

What a market day must have been like in Manacor in the late 70s. This 16mm color footage shows that, while the urban planning and appearance of Plaça Ramon Llull have changed in these almost 50 years, there are others that continue to make the Manacor landscape very recognizable.

Jordi Sansó and Gabriela Brunet opened Casona Can Jordi in 1974, next to the Portocristo stream. Since then, one thing has led to another. Hamburgers, hot dogs, or skewers are the specialty of a house that his son Jordi still keeps. In less than 10 square meters a world, on a terrace half the town, and in the photos the memories of Can Jordiet, Can Jordió, or whatever the smell brings to mind first.

Neus Salas, director of the Sa Torre de Manacor health center, once again received the support this Tuesday from professionals, patients, and citizens of Manacor. More than 150 people gathered at La Bassa to defend the nurse whom the Superior Court of Justice of the Balearic Islands (TSJIB) has forced to leave her position because it considers that the center's management must fall to a doctor. From the rally in personal support of Neus Salas, a collective demand emerged: the call for management and responsibility positions in healthcare to be valued based on competencies and experience, beyond a strict interpretation of the medical qualification requirement.

Manacor is the first municipality in the Balearic Islands to approve and process a formal petition to the Government for the municipality to be declared a tense residential market area, which will allow for the application of “an individualized reference index per dwelling, taking into account factors such as surface area, location, year of construction, state of conservation, or whether it has an elevator or energy certificate”, among others, explains the municipal delegate for Urban Planning, Núria Hinojosa, which in turn will serve to “detect and correct abusive cases”.

When at the end of 2015 Rosa Sureda Jaume decided to take over the old neighborhood store, Walt Disney, in Berard square, she was a novice in the art of managing customers. “I was very shy at first, and I felt a lot of embarrassment… not anymore!”. Renamed Botiga Sa Placeta, the present and future of local commerce do not seem to be numbered in Sa Torre.

Esteve Sureda, spokesperson for Vox in Manacor, leaves no one indifferent. Not even those in his own party. If two months ago the president of the Balearic Parliament, Gabriel LeSenne, chose Sureda as a guide to speak out against people and groups trying to make a living with businesses like barbershops and stores on certain city avenues, now it has been the spokesperson for the far-right party also in Parliament, Manuel Cañadas, who has traveled to Portocristo to speak face-to-face with Sureda.

Guillem Febrer Fons (Manacor, 1973) for practically three decades has been the manager of Estel de Llevant, the pro-mental health entity that has already helped thousands of users and families from the Llevant region. Now that it is opening a new space in the Torre de Manacor neighborhood, we speak with him calmly.

As happened last year around this same time, the rise in temperatures and the increasingly direct incidence of the sun, are causing the problems at the Son Boga early childhood education school in Manacor to once again worry the children's families and the educational community.

“We started 20 years ago. Little by little. Now everyone promotes and cooks Sant Marc snails… but at the time we were the first”, explains Guillem Garí, owner of the Es Cruce restaurant in Vilafranca, the temple of one of the most sought-after Majorcan dishes this week on the island.

What about the covered pavilion that has been due to be built for years around the Torre dels Enagistes sports area? What are the problems that mean a project so necessary for Manacor's sport still hasn't even had the land bought?

That the plenary sessions of the Manacor City Council are something else is a fact demonstrable with the videos that the council itself uploads each month to its Youtube channel. It is clear that like any good ‘show’, the plenary session has politically boring and administrative procedural moments; but it has others, especially when it comes to the turn of requests and questions, where the emotion skyrockets (and often goes crazy).

Cales de Mallorca, the main hotel and therefore tourist area of the municipality of Manacor, has been demanding urban planning reception for decades. Born in the 60s as a private promotion of apartments and hotels to meet the demand of the first sun and beach boom, it has since incorporated a stable population that, despite paying taxes and fees for municipal services, receives almost no maintenance in return.

The City Council and the management teams of the public and state-subsidized schools in Manacor were put out of play when the Ministry of Education informed them that the municipality, until now divided into four school zoning areas (Manacor, Portocristo, Son Macià, and l’Illot), would become a single zone, as is the case in the rest of Mallorca's municipalities except for four: Calvià, Andratx, Selva, and Santa Margalida.

The Acampallengua of Manacor creates a talent pool, and dances, and a desire to continue using Catalan as the habitual language of Mallorcan life. This has been the first day of the annual meeting organized by Joves de Mallorca per la Llengua, which has brought together thousands of people around the various proposals distributed in different spaces of the city.
