Residents can ban tourist apartments, according to the Supreme Court
- Faced with the problems in the two buildings of San Sebastian and Oviedo, the judges have delegated the prohibition of tourist apartments in the communities of neighbors. However, it will be necessary for the prohibition to be included in the residence status of the building.
Turistifikazioaren aurkako manifestazioa urrian, Donostian. // Argazkia: Bizilagunekin
Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.
The Supreme Court has ruled that neighbouring communities may prohibit tourist apartments on their property provided that the housing regulations of that building prohibit any economic activity. He took the decision after two cases in San Sebastian and Oviedo (Asturias). According to the judges, renting homes for tourist use is an economic activity.
The Supreme Court stresses that statutory limitations should be “clear, precise and explicit”. It also points out that it is “consistent” to prohibit tourist renting, as the measure prevents commercial, professional or business economic activities in housing.
