What changed
This law fast-tracks urban planning and building permit procedures to speed up reconstruction in areas devastated by the DANA flooding of October 2024 in the Valencian Community. It allows temporary suspension of certain planning requirements and enables accelerated building licences for repair, reconstruction, and relocation of damaged properties. It also facilitates urgent land reclassification where needed to rehouse residents and restore economic activity.
Who is affected
It primarily affects owners of homes and businesses damaged by the DANA floods, municipalities in the affected areas, and developers or builders working on reconstruction projects.
What to look out for
→ If your property was damaged by the DANA, contact your local council (ayuntamiento) to request the fast-track licences available under this law. Keep all documentation of the damage, as it will be required for the procedures.
