The Consell de Ibiza has opened for public exhibition the demolition project of the unfinished structure of Cala d’en Serra, in the municipality of Sant Joan. The initiative, published Thursday in the Official Gazette of the Balearic Islands (BOIB), is a new decisive step for the environmental recovery of one of the most deteriorated enclaves in the north of the island.

The insular institution has initially approved the execution project of the demolition works, considering as a priority the landscape restoration of the area. The document, approved last November 11, will be submitted to public information for twenty working days from this Friday. During this period it will be available for consultation at the Technical Services of the Department of Presidency, Finance, Economic Management and Sports of the Consell.

After the public exposition, the interested parties may present allegations. If none are registered, the project will be finally approved. At the same time, the Council will apply to the City Council of Sant Joan for the planning permission and the 95% ICIO rebate, as it is an action considered of special municipal interest.

A key breakthrough in a process expected for decades

The public exhibition of the project is a continuation of the administrative progress made in recent months. In June, the Consell Executiu awarded the drafting of the executive project and the construction management for an amount of 96,800 euros (VAT included), which allowed to start the technical work prior to the demolition.

Then, both the president of the Consell, Vicent Marí, and the mayor of Sant Joan, Tania Marí, stressed the importance of this intervention to «close a visual and ecological wound» in the north coast. The structure, initially intended to become a hotel complex, was left half built in the seventies and since then has meant an environmental and landscape impact in an area of special natural value.

With the processing of the demolition project already underway, the Consell is moving towards the comprehensive restoration of this environment, in line with the strategies for the protection of the territory and the coastline that the institution defends for Ibiza.

During the ceremony, held in the municipality and attended by local and island authorities, Mayor Tania Marí stressed that these awards seek to recognize «the people who make Sant Joan great», referring to the legacy and dedication of the honorees.

A life dedicated to education in Sant Joan

The Gold Medal was awarded to Teresa Elías for her 34-year career as head of the municipal school of Benirràs, a center that she directed until her retirement two years ago.

The award recognizes his role in the consolidation of the center as a reference point on the island, thanks to his drive, management and community spirit.

Gold Medal 2025 of Sant Joan

«It is an honor to have your life’s work recognized,» Elias said before the ceremony, noting that the award is also for «all the people who made this project possible.»

The teacher, born in Argentina and resident on the island since 1979, thanked the support of her colleagues, families of the municipality and her close environment, present during the ceremony.

The mayor, a former student of Elías, praised the dedication and sensitivity of the honoree, recalling how she transformed the center from its beginnings, when it barely had the basics, to become an educational model.

«We managed to make it the vanguard of Ibiza’s escoletes,» said Elías herself, who lived in Cala de Sant Vicent and Sant Llorenç and remains emotionally linked to Sant Joan.

Citizen Merit to Eivissa Club 4×4 for its help in the dana of Valencia

The group Eivissa Club 4×4 received the Citizen Merit Award for its solidarity work during the emergency caused by the dana that affected the Valencian Community in November 2024. The entity was recognized for its logistical and human support in the field.

«We left five vehicles loaded with food, boots, shovels and gloves,» explained José Marí Roig, Cudulà, president of the group, who recalled the four and a half days of work in areas such as Albal and Catarroja, where they helped clear streets to facilitate the work of firefighters.

Cudulà, accompanied by his team, emphasized the voluntary and altruistic nature of his action: «We would do it again if necessary, although hopefully it won’t be necessary«. The mayor defined their performance as an example of how «passion for motors can go hand in hand with social commitment.»

Portinatx Cycling Team, Award for Sporting Merit

The award for Sporting Merit was presented to the Portinatx Cycling Team, founded in 2014, for its trajectory and promotion of sport in the municipality.

Its president, Raúl Rodríguez Granado, thanked for the recognition on behalf of the team and described it as «a sign that we are doing things right».

La entrada Ibiza improves its connectivity: Sant Joan will inaugurate a new telecommunications tower in summer se publicó primero en La Voz De Ibiza.

]]>
The new telecommunications tower of Sant Joan is already a reality. Located in the area of Venda Es Murtar, the infrastructure has been received by the Balearic Agency for Digitalization, Cybersecurity and Telecommunications (IB Digital) and will be fully operational before the summer, after completing the electrification and installation of antennas.

A key infrastructure for connectivity in northern Ibiza

The manager of IB Digital, Miquel Cardona, and the insular director of New Technologies and Citizen Service Office, Javier Torres, visited the facilities to certify the completion of the construction works, which were in charge of the company Sampol. The new tower will significantly improve the coverage of the emergency communications network (TetraIB), as well as the Govern’s sensor network (IoTIB) in the north of the island.

According to IB Digital, the tower also represents a great opportunity for private telephone and internet operators, since it will allow the installation of antennas to improve coverage in the area. In fact, contacts have already been initiated with different companies interested in expanding their network using this new infrastructure.

Next steps before start-up

Although the construction of the tower has already been completed, electrification work will be carried out in the next few months, which is expected to be completed in a maximum of three months. Once the electrical network and meters have been installed, the communication antennas will be installed. The tower is estimated to be operational in four to five months, just in time for the peak summer season.

The installation is part of IB Digital’s plan to reinforce the telecommunications network in the Balearic Islands, with an investment of 12.4 million euros co-financed with Feder Funds 21-27. This program seeks to improve safety and the tourist experience through the expansion of communication and sensorization networks on the islands.

More coverage for emergencies and intelligent territorial management

One of the main objectives of this new tower is to strengthen the communications network of the emergency services in Ibiza. The TetraIB network is used to coordinate interventions in crisis situations, mass events and security operations. Currently, Ibiza has a coverage of 70%, the lowest in the archipelago, but with the installation of new antennas it is expected to reach 89%, placing it at the level of the rest of the islands.

On the other hand, the IoTIB network, which allows to intelligently manage aspects such as the capacity of beaches, water use or public transport, will also be strengthened with the installation of more antennas on the island. Currently, Ibiza has 7 antennas of this network, but it is expected that by the end of the legislature the number will triple to 21.
