THE reorganisation of Benitachell’s planning department has led to a spectacular improvement in efficiency, having reduced waiting times for planning permission from 18 months to just one month, solving one of the main problems affecting the area.
The staff was restructured to include a lawyer as head of department, assisted by a technical architect, a specialised planning lawyer, a site inspector and two support staff.
The department has also been modernised, and work is underway to update the payment systems through the municipal website. At the same time, the Territorial Council has given Benitachell a €15,000 grant to modernise the local document management system.
