Protección y régimen jurídico del suelo no urbanizable en Navarra: La construcción de viviendas y su influencia en la ordenación del territorio

Abstract

Navarran urban planning legislation allows for the building of single-family housing in non-building soil in the Cantabrian area. In spite of the apparently restrictive requisites demanded in such regulations, practice is proving that, on one hand, it is easier and cheaper to build on non-building soil than it is on urban soil and, additionally, that such building is taking place in an individual manner. Such building activity is taking place without any previous planning or sufficient pondering of the territorial characteristics of the areas to be built on. Because of this and due to the increase in demand of this type of housing, it would be necessary to reconsider the authorisation thereof or, in any event, a stricter regulation and subsequent control from an environmental and land planning perspective.
