Valencia Life 25.1.6-
In what many saw as a surprise move yesterday, Benissa Mayor Juan Bautista Rosello resuscitated the plan for a by-pass of the town as proposed by the company belonging to the brother of the Conseller for Agriculture Juan Cotino. Vicente Cotino had unveiled plans for a 33-metre-wide bypass and some 2000 homes, at a cost of some 9 million Euros, the majority of which would have to be borne by the 25 owners of the land involved, but the number of owners may have gone down, according to Mr. Rosello, 'as the majority of the landowners want the project undertaken as quickly as possible, and the project will also enable us to create 200 units of protected housing'. However, what is rather odd about this project if it goes ahead is that there will then be two bypasses of Benissa some 100metres apart - the other having been approved by the Infrastructure Ministry - for execution this year. Opposition voices have termed the idea 'stupid', whilst a spokesmen for the CIBE-Bloc opposition party stated: "60% of all the urbanizable land in Benissa is in the hands of companies outside the town, whilst in Benissa there are some 500 construction companies."
