The Zierbena City Council is progressing towards the final approval of its new General Urban Planning (PGOU). Following the approval of its preliminary draft, the document has garnered 90 allegations during the public exhibition phase. These will now be evaluated by technical experts for potential inclusion in the document, which will then require provisional approval by the municipal plenary session.
“"The document aims for a municipality designed for everyone, based on responsibility, harmony between neighborhoods, and respect for Zierbena's identity."
The PNV of Zierbena has highlighted the progress of the PGOU, asserting that the 90 allegations represent an “opportunity to improve the document and further adjust it to the real needs of Zierbena.” This new urban roadmap anticipates the construction of 480 new homes, facilitating sustainable growth for the municipality. Additionally, the future PGOU includes provisions for new parking areas and improvements to sidewalks and pedestrian paths, aiming to make Zierbena a more accessible place.
From the jeltzale ranks, it is believed that citizen contributions demonstrate the plan's necessity to reflect the diverse sensitivities and realities within the municipality. They emphasized that urban planning is a strategic framework designed to articulate a cohesive urban model, respecting local identity and ensuring orderly, sustainable, and coherent development aligned with Zierbena's needs.
A quarter of a century has passed since Zierbena gave the green light to its current PGOU. Society and reality have changed considerably since the beginning of the century, making a new legal framework essential to shape the future of the municipality.
