There was also an issue with car parking. Santanyi town hall wants the Caló des Moro car park to be open this summer and is complying with demands from the Council of Mallorca to legalise it. This means that it will have to be reclassified - from rustic to urban land, the latter enabling development. In November last year, the Council's ADT defence of territory agency closed the site because of the lack of planning permits.
The town hall has approved spending of 580,000 euros in order to improve the car park. As soon as the Council of Mallorca gives the go-ahead for the land to become developable, the town hall will undertake work - surfacing, marking parking spaces and providing services such as lighting.
The aim is for the car park to be open this summer and therefore help to prevent the kind of traffic chaos that has been affecting the Caló des Moro, S'Almunia and Cala Llombards area.

This is ridiculous, completely over the top. All thats needed is the designated space to park cars during the day. No resurfacing, parking lines, lights. That is turning a beautiful area into an urban beach. Just give people a place to park and let them get on with it - like it has worked for years. As soon as you let the authorities take over, the jobsworths get stuck in and suddenly the place looks like magaluf.
