The Genaral Plan of Domeño addresses the planning of a singular municipality, by affecting two separate and completely different territories: “Domeño Viejo”, the original municipal term, is currently abandoned and occupies a rugged territory covered by mountains, in for the most part. “Domeño Nuevo” is a recent creation (1963) of the National Institute of Colonization , which had to intervene to design a new site, occupying land in Llíria, before the construction of the Loriguilla reservoir , which was carried out years later, in 1979 . According to the BOP of October 29 In 1954, this reservoir would enter the municipal area of Domeño, causing the total flooding of the irrigated productive lands and mills and, consequently, ending the possibility of subsistence for its inhabitants.
The final transfer of the population ended in 1981 and it was not until 1987 when, after a long administrative and assent of the process Council of the State, Domeño obtained his municipality as local entity fully segregating L l iria. In 2001 the complete demolition of the old town of Domeño ended, a beautiful place that (by the way) never got flooded.
The result of this process is that the original part, “Domeño Viejo”, is an unpopulated territory with great mineral and forest wealth, while the new town obeys a simple urban model of great spatial and endowment quality.
In this context, the philosophy that inspires this plan can be summarized in the following decalogue:
Locality: Domeño (Valencia, Spain); Promoter: City Council of Domeño; Municipal term area: 6,891 Ha.; Urban Land: 46 Ha.; Able for urbanise Land: 11 Ha.; Not able for urbanise land: 6,834 Ha.; Population cores: 1; Processing status: Definitely approved
