Unless the allegations announced as preventive and / or contentious appeals that are expected to prosper, the future concession of moorings for yachting in the port of La Savina in a single 25-year concession will involve the transformation of the portwith new infrastructure, reorganization of moorings and the construction of two subway parking lots, among other actions.
Sa Unió, PSOE and GxF have positioned themselves against it so openly that they have raised an all-out political battle against the Port Authority of the Balearic Islands in some cases based on surreal and contradictory arguments, if not outright false.
