Finally Marbella Ayuntamiento gets to work when demolition work starts this week on an illegal development in the Golf Río Real area of Las Chapas, Marbella. The block in question consisted of 34 apartments built by Naviro Inmobiliaria on land designated as a green zone.
With the new PGOU plan for Marbella, this apartment block would not be legalized. What made this block one of the main candidates for demolition was that
unlike many of the other 18,000 properties with planning issues in Marbella, this development had not been sold nor occupied. This is also the case for the other development that is soon to be knocked down. However the real issue is whether they will ever get as far a demolishing developments where people actually own and live in properties. Maybe this is just a peace offering to the Junta de Andalucia, only time will tell
Supposedly the development was supposed to have been torn down within 2 months of the order being given, which was in September, by the promoter. Obviously more than 2 months have passed since September, but the order was executed by Naviro, not the Ayuntamineto. The next development that appears to be marked for demolition is Linda Vista, located in San Pedro, a development of six small houses build by Prosavi which was also built on land designated green zone.
The good thing here is that the majority of the properties in Marbella will be legalized, especially those that have been sold to people who bought in good faith and were badly advised. Time will tell if this is a real attempt to bring everything in line or just touching round the edges.
