Following the experience and success achieved with the drafting of the Consolidated Planning Text for Benaguasil (Valencia), which was supervised by the Urban Planning Information and Analysis Service of the Ministry of Territorial Policy, Public Works and Mobility, five Valencian Community councils have commissioned to the company AUG-ARQUITECTOS, SLP the elaboration of their respective consolidated texts of municipal planning. This initiative is part of ORDER 10/2022, of September 23, of the Ministry of Territorial Policy, Public Works and Mobility, which establishes the regulatory bases and the call, for the year 2022, of the subsidies for to municipalities of the Valencian Community for the modernization and transparency of current urban planning.
As in the 2021 call, this initiative is intended to “promote the transparency of current urban planning. For these purposes, the administration must ensure that the municipal urban planning information is updated to the main current urban planning parameters and characteristics and, with this, increase transparency and facilitate access to public information on the matter”.
Four of the municipalities that have entrusted AUG-ARQUITECTOS, SLP with the work are in the province of Valencia and one in Castellón. In all cases, these are municipalities with fewer than 20,000 inhabitants and with dispersed planning, which makes analysis and application difficult. Some of the town councils were previously aware of the work carried out by the company in the field of urban planning and land use planning, while in other cases it is a new collaboration.
