VOX Baleares has presented its plan ‘Building Future’, an initiative that seeks to address the housing crisis in the archipelago. The formation denounces the “inaction” of left-wing governments in recent years and criticizes the PP for lack of concrete measures, ensuring that its proposal is “realistic and effective”.
More floor, more height and safety for homeowners
Among the main measures of the plan, VOX proposes:
- Construction of 20,000 free-price, subsidized and subsidized housing units to reduce the shortage of real estate in the Balearic Islands.
- Land liberalization and increase in building heights, reversing declassifications to allow vertical growth.
- Measures against squatting and inquiokupación, with legal and economic protection for owners and the creation of a database of squatters and defaulters.
- Tax incentives for access to housing and priority for residents in subsidies and promotions.
- Encouragement of public-private collaboration, with permanent contact with developers for efficient planning.
- Residences for students and temporary workers to decongest the market and balance the supply.
Criticism of PP and left-wing parties
The parliamentary spokeswoman of VOX Baleares, Manuela Cañadas, has assured that “Baleares does not need more unfulfilled promises or ineffective programs”, in reference to the management of the Popular Party. “While the PP remains kneeling before the left, in VOX we are clear about what to do to ensure access to housing,” she said.
The party maintains that its plan is the only real alternative to curb the escalation of prices and increase supply. “We don’t need more make-up or empty speeches, but facts,” concluded Cañadas.
