Overview
- The Venus block is slated to be vacated in 2027 and demolished in 2028, with €53.11 million earmarked for the operation and a buy‑to‑rehouse strategy replacing the previous replacement‑building approach.
- Operational progress includes 40 flats already purchased, 12 families rehoused, five more moving shortly, and 26 households plus seven premises vacated after indemnification, with 15 purchases awaiting notarization and 26 more in process.
- The plan adds 356 public housing units, including a 66‑home building already awarded and 240 homes on three parcels, plus a 100‑place nursery, a 60‑place elder residence, and a Centre Internacional de Lluites Olímpiques.
- Funding for the Consorci de la Mina is set to double from €6.52 million to €13.34 million annually between 2026 and 2029 through higher contributions from the Generalitat, Barcelona City Council and the Diputació, with €12 million dedicated to new social programs starting in 2026.
- Presented by President Salvador Illa, the package assigns ten projects to four departments with staffing reinforced at the Consorci, and officials say works can begin immediately after years of delays since the 2000 plan.
