New building in towns with a population of less than 10,000 will be considered on a case by case basis

The Junta de Andalucia has given in to pressure applied on it from Mayors across the region, many of them Socialist, to offer more flexibility to those villages with populations of less than 10,000 people where there is a desire for growth.

Regional Councillor for Public Works, Concha Gutiérrez, has said that a new commission will be established to decided on each village, case by case in what is greater flexibility to the previous POTA territorial plan. The plan has already been challenged by both the PP opposition and builders who say that it is far too restrictive.

In particular the part of the legislation which says that no more than 40% of land can be declared as suitable for building, and that population growth as a result of new building cannot increase by more than 30%.
