At present there are rumours going round about possible extra charges being passed on to illegal home owners in Catral

These charges are rumoured to be between 5 to 7 euro per square meter of land you own, if the legalisation goes ahead

This is reportedly to do with the land changing from farm land to urbanistic land. There was meant to have been an article about this in a local paper, which I will try and find

It basically says that if the homes are made legal, they can charge between 5 to 7 euro per square meter of land you own plus still charge you extra on top for urbanisation of your property

Going by the reason they have come up with these charges, Im now considering taking up town planing and then retiring after a few months work a very rich man, but not in Spain
