Jardim Botânico Strikes Deal Letting Horto Families Stay Under Strict Rules

Overview

• The pact keeps the land under Jardim Botânico ownership while recognizing regulated occupation for 621 families.
• All reintegração de posse actions are suspended during implementation under oversight from a multi‑party monitoring commission.
• The park must present a workplan within 30 days and conclude individual agreements with residents within one year.
• Expansion of homes is prohibited both vertically and horizontally with no new construction allowed, and commercial use faces narrow exceptions.
• Fifty‑four homes require city risk assessments that may lead to relocations within the Horto, and the Canto e Melo condominium is excluded from the agreement.
