On October 26, 2021, the plenary session of the Alpuente City Council (Valencia), after passing the public exhibition and consultation phase and gathering all the determining sector reports, agreed to send the proposal of its Structural Plan to the regional environmental body and request the issuance of the Strategic Environmental and Territorial Declaration. This agreement, which also includes the same decision as regards the Detailed Management Plan (addressed in this case to the municipal environmental body), represents a further step in the processing and marks the beginning of the last stage of the evaluation and processing. .
The Master Plan of Alpuente is complex due to the large number of inhabited nuclei in the municipal area, all of them small in size, but of great patrimonial value. In addition to the wealth in terms of landscape, natural and heritage resources of this town, the firm will of its inhabitants is added to find a formula that allows them to reconcile the safeguarding and protection of all these values, with the encouragement of economic activities and the fight against depopulation. And in this context, the Master Plan can become an effective and necessary tool to achieve these objectives.
