Overview
- An extraordinary session called by the Partido Popular to file administrative appeals was voted down by the PSPV/PSOE and Compromís majority, despite support from PP, Gent de Dénia and Vox.
- The Ministry for the Ecological Transition’s new coastal boundaries reclassify parts of the shoreline as public domain, with affected residents reporting loss of title and only long-term concessions offered instead of compensation.
- PSPV spokesperson Maria Josep Ripoll said the city’s earlier allegation reduced the public-domain strip to 20 meters along much of the sector, leaving about 20 properties subject to the new line.
- Opposition leaders Pepa Font, Mario Vidal and Félix Redondo blamed beach regression on sediment retention by reservoirs, port infrastructure and past sand and gravel extraction, arguing delineation should follow regeneration works.
- Affected homeowners say they will pursue their own legal defenses, citing prior out-of-pocket protective measures and frustration over being moved to concession regimes for family homes.
