The catastrophe of San Lorenzo The disaster that occurred eight years ago "could have happened again" because "the works that should mitigate and minimize its impact are still pending," according to Sara Lobato, dean of the Balearic Islands College of Civil Engineers. This represents a "management anomaly," she asserted. This is one of the examples the engineers cited on Monday to illustrate the lack of management and planning tools plaguing the islands' infrastructure due to a lack of consensus among institutions. "Without planning, we cannot speak of strategy," she warned. Along the same lines, the College's vice-dean, Ángel Matías, urged public institutions not to set objectives that must be met within the four years of a legislative term because, in his opinion, "planning instruments extend beyond these four years, leading to a somewhat short-sighted view of the situation." To put an end to this problem, the engineers have proposed a way to "shorten timelines": "the creation of a technical commission that is familiar with the projects from their inception and that is interoperable with the other stakeholders involved in land-use planning." Furthermore, Matías has also suggested seeking consensus through master plans with a duration of between 10 and 20 years.
