Overview

  • Haritzalde and Ekologistak Martxan Gipuzkoa lodged a denunciation with the Fiscalía de Gipuzkoa on July 15 accusing the urban maintenance councilor of prevarication and the villa owner of public asset usurpation
  • The complaint highlights that the 300-meter municipal water deposit road concession expired on March 21, 2025, and was non-renewable under Spanish Heritage Law
  • Tavaro XXI, owned by Xabi Alonso’s wife, is alleged to have continued private use of the public path without legal title after the concession lapsed
  • Both the Donostia City Council and the villa’s developer have appealed the court’s annulment of the chalet’s construction license to the Tribunal Superior de Justicia del País Vasco
  • The Fiscalía de Gipuzkoa must now decide whether to open a formal probe while the Superior Court reviews the chalet’s rural zoning compliance
