The Balearic Government has described the declaration of Esporles as a stressed housing market as "symbolic," considering it to be outside the City Council's jurisdiction, although it has expressed respect for a decision it views as a political stance. In the press conference following the Governing Council meeting, the spokesperson for the regional government, Antoni Costa, stated that "the declaration of Esporles is purely symbolic" and expressed his opposition to its implementation, considering it a "populist" measure that "doesn't work." It should be recalled that the Esporles City Council plenary session approved a motion this Thursday from the PAS-MÁS per Esporles party to officially declare the municipality as an area with a stressed housing market, in accordance with the criteria established in State Law 12/2023 on the right to housing. The initiative has the support of MÉS per Mallorca, which participated in the process of drafting and promoting the proposal. According to the City Council, the decision responds to an increasingly evident reality: "the sustained and disproportionate increase in rental and purchase prices, the structural shortage of affordable housing, and the excessive financial burden many families must bear to continue living in the municipality." With this self-declaration, the City Council formally acknowledges that Esporles exhibits indicators typical of a strained housing market, in line with Article 18 of Law 12/2023, which defines these areas as having housing costs exceeding 30% of household income or when housing prices have risen. The objective is to protect the right to housing, prevent residential displacement, and "ensure that living in Esporles remains possible for its residents." The motion formally reiterates to the Government that, following the declaration, it must abide by the decision and study the indicators to further support the declaration of Esporles as a strained area. The City Council will also prepare a supplementary municipal report with data on the local residential market and will assess the possibility of filing an administrative or judicial appeal in the event of an express refusal.

The Esporles Town Council has announced that it will be the first municipality to offer a new residential model, with eight supervised living places for seniors. This model is designed for people with a higher level of autonomy than required by the traditional residential model, which is intended for more advanced dependency, the Council explained in a statement. The new facility aims to offer an alternative adapted to current needs, promoting personal autonomy and quality of life. According to Mayor Josep Ferrà, with the opening of these eight supervised living places, Esporles will have, for the first time and after many years of effort, its first residential service in the municipality, within the framework of the 2026-2030 Social and Healthcare Infrastructure Plan. "These first eight places are just the beginning; in the coming years we will continue working to expand the offering and meet the needs of our seniors," said Ferrà. In the coming months, the City Council and the Regional Ministry of Families, Social Welfare, and Dependency Care will work together to define the terms of the future agreement, finalize the proposal for the residential space, and formalize the agreement that will allow the service to begin. The Councilor for Social Services, Maria Roig, stated that "the aim is for it to happen as soon as possible, and, if it depends on the City Council, for it to be a reality this year, 2026, since the facilities are already built."

The municipalities of the Tramuntana mountain range have the highest incomes in the Balearic Islands. According to the latest data from the Tax Agency, Esporles is the municipality with more than 1,000 inhabitants with the highest average gross income in the archipelago: 47,908 euros per year per tax return. It is closely followed by Valldemossa, with 46,046 euros, a municipality that had led this ranking in recent years and which this year occupies the second position.

Residents of Esporles have warned of the possible holding of bullfighting events on a property with a bullring whose construction has been halted by the Territorial Defense Agency (ADT). This was reported by the Franz Weber Foundation, according to Europa Press, which demanded an explanation from the municipal council and other institutions. In a statement, the animal rights association denounced that the company managing the property is the sole administrator of the company promoting the bullfights in Inca and the upcoming bullfight on September 14 in Muro. "The stench of mafia seems to spread throughout the Part Forana," it criticized.

The town councils of Banyalbufar and Esporles have demanded that the public authorities ensure that the dry docks at Puerto del Canónigo do not collapse and that they are preserved as part of the cultural and scenic heritage of the Tramuntana mountain range.
