FIRST THE GOOD NEWS
From Valencia Life 1.10.05
SALINAS PROTECTED
The Calpe Salt Flats - Salinas - received a breath of fresh air earlier this week when the Madrid Parliament approved declaring them a protected area, meaning in effect that no buildings may be erected within 100 metres. According to the Socialist members of the Town Council, this in effect meansthat the current plans to build at least 2,200 homes in apartment blocks of50 storeys high, must all be stopped as they are too close to the Salinas.
Now for the not so good news as obviously this will mean people losing land.
ONE SATISFIED MAYOR
Juan Bautista Rosello, the Mayor of Benissa yesterday voiced his 'delight and satisfaction' that a by-pass for his municipality had been included in next years budget by the Socialist Government in Madrid. He added that the necessary expropriations had not yet been undertaken, but that in all probability the bypass would be reached via the access road to the AP-7 motorway, and emerge in a roundabout to be created where the road to Jalon reaches the N-332 main road.
