Subsidiary Planning Regulations of El Valle — planning instrument in force

Review of El Valle’s NN.SS., definitively approved by the CPOTU of Granada on 28 November 2002 and partially adapted to the LOUA (Decree 11/2008), an adaptation that aligns its status with that of a PGOU. It classifies the land of the three population centres —Restábal, Melegís and Saleres— and protects undevelopable land: Sites of Cultural Interest, drovers’ roads, rivers and the Béznar reservoir.
