The Consell de Mallorca has published a second unfavorable report on the chicken macro-farm project that the company Avícola Son Perot has proposed to build in Sineu.
According to this second report, the island institution considers that in the project presented “It is necessary to justify the compatibility of use of the new activity proposal with the activities and uses currently existing on the plots” close to the place where it is proposed to install the macrofarm, “in particular with regard to residential uses”. In addition, it warns that “the definition of fences , lighting and the impact on the road system must be integrated or expanded.
In detail, the Consell examined “Insufficient” the landscape integration study of the project and proposed to supplement it with the description of the essential characteristics of the project plot, with its main components and landscape values, on the one hand; and, on the other hand, with the analysis of the surrounding landscape, all to protect the “high, very high or extraordinary” degree of landscape enhancement that the forest part of the plots possesses.
Furthermore, the island institution indicated in this second report that “compliance with standard 22 of the Territorial Plan of the Island of Majorca (PTIM) in terms of landscape integration of buildings and installations remains to be justified”.
Well, it must be remembered that PTIM Standard 22 determines what the maximum height of buildings can be, what façade and roof materials and finishes are allowed, and what the interior and exterior fences must be, so that they are adapt to nature and uses. land and traditional construction systems, for good landscape integration.
The Consell also stressed that “mobility must be justified generated” by the Sineu macrofarm project and “the impact on the island road system” that it can generate.
Regarding the latter, the Consell recalled that “the corresponding authorization must be processed in accordance with the provisions of Law 5/1990, of May 24, on the roads of the Autonomous Community of the Balearic Islands”.
Finally, the island institution indicated that in the case where the activity affects natural areas of particular interest with a high level of protection (AANP), risk prevention zones (APR) or territorial protection zones ( APT), it will be necessary to “guarantee the collection and purification of waste generated by intensive livestock activities.”
It must also ensure the maintenance of the existing forest massif, including the renewal of dead specimens by at least the same number of young specimens of the same species, as well as crops intended to maintain natural populations of animals. and, finally, “the prior report from the competent environmental administration”.
Already on September 14, the president of the PP Mallorca and the Consell, Llorenç Galmésmet in Sineu with the mayors spokespersons of the popular formation in the towns of Pla and with the local council of the municipality itself to discuss the construction of the macro-breeding of 750,000 chickens in this town.
The president assured that the PP opposes the development of the project because “we are here to improve the lives of Majorcans and support them in their demands.”
In this sense, he defended that “there is no other way to “playing politics rather than listening carefully to the issues.” According to him, these installations “would have a negative impact both on the well-being of neighbors and on the territory in which they are located and, in this sense, he recalled the existence of negative and unfavorable reports from the institutions, notably from the Ministry of Agriculture, Sineu Town Hall and Consell de Mallorca.
