The High Court of Justice of the Balearic Islands has once again set limits on one of the paths that landowners have historically used to try to obtain urban development rights on rustic land: arguing that the physical reality has already, in fact, turned them into city.

The Detailed Urban Plan (POD) of Palma still has no timetable two years after municipal technicians took over its drafting. It is a fundamental instrument for interpreting and applying Palma's General Plan, approved by the Pact shortly before losing the elections.
