There was an increase in
housing construction in the town of Javea, following an upward trend since 2011, as confirmed
below by the Deputy Mayor of Javea, Oscar Antón, on the 31st January 2015.
YEAR /
NUMBER OF REQUESTS FOR MAJOR WORKS/ NUMBER OF NEW HOUSES/ PROPOSED BUDGET
The
increase occurs significantly in 2014 to double the number of houses and the
budget for the execution of requests for licences for major works. More
importantly, nearly all the homes entail major urbanization of the plots with
garden, terraces, barbecue and pool. The construction of these houses has not
led to the creation of new roads but made use of existing plots, some fully
urbanized and others which have the obligation to complete the development
works that are presently missing to achieve the required conditions.
All
other licences granted, which are reflected in the boost in the 2014 figures
relate to additions and alterations to existing houses, usually due to the sale
of such housing.
This
increase in applications will cause an increase in construction and thus the
economy, since construction is one of the major economic engines of our
population and also will increase other economies such as maintenance,
restoration, etc.
