Session of 9 April 2021

The regular plenary session of the second quarter was held on 9 April 2021 with all municipal councillors present.

Reception of the Planas del Rey Sports Area

The main item on the agenda was the approval of the partial reception of the sports area of Planas del Rey. As clarified by the mayor, this reception includes:

• the swimming pool
• the tennis courts
• the football field
• the children’s playground
• the parking area
• the green area

This decision is based on a favourable report by Mr. Frederic, a technician from the Consell Comarcal del Baix Camp, assigned to several municipalities.

Main Elements of the Technical Report

• The received area corresponds to the cadastral property 3741626CF2434S0001AB, classified as urban land.
• The municipality justifies this reception due to the need to properly manage the facilities following the dissolution of the EUCC.
• The roads and green spaces have already been transferred to the municipality and are included in the definitively approved reparceling project, although still pending registration in the Property Registry.
• The sports area has remained operational and the town hall has contributed to its maintenance (notably the swimming pool).
• The property is registered under the municipality, the facilities are functional, and no new work is planned beyond the regular maintenance already handled by the town hall.
• The urban development project does not include additional work on this area.

In summary, this reception enables the town hall to ensure the maintenance and safety of the area with all necessary guarantees.

A Step Forward for Planas del Rey

The vote was unanimously approved by the councillors. The green area is now officially recognised as a municipal facility, and the town hall is committed to maintaining it.

This decision is a significant step forward for the urbanisation and marks a change in the attitude of the municipal majority (JxCAT-JUNTS), which finally responds positively to a long-standing demand from the residents of Planes del Rei.

Unanswered Questions

However, several questions remain:

• Why did this reception not take place earlier, particularly after the judicial dissolution of the EUCC?
• Why did the swimming pool remain closed during the summer of 2017, to the detriment of all residents?

The technical report indicates that the conditions for reception had already been met since 2008. What has changed since then? Everyone may draw their own conclusions.
