DMAS Halts Unauthorized Construction in Tulum with Preventive Registry Annotation

The Defending the Right to a Healthy Environment (DMAS) association has successfully secured a preventive registry annotation for the Adamar project. This development is located in Bahía Solimán, Tulum, and the annotation has been registered with the Property Public Registry. This definitive suspension aims to halt the construction of the project. Potential buyers will be made aware of this annotation during their property review. This is the second time DMAS has managed to secure such an annotation, highlighting the importance of the Property Public Registry in avoiding complications and preventing uninformed individuals from purchasing a property in good faith.

Construction on the Adamar project began in November 2023 without any permits. There is no federal environmental impact authorization, no state territorial compatibility certificate, and no municipal construction license in place. The only existing license was issued after construction began, in February 2024. This license suggests that it adheres to the Tulum Urban Program and is "conditional" on an environmental impact authorization, despite the project's remote location and lack of such authorization.

The project has been authorized for five stories, yet seven are being sold and constructed. Moreover, 24 apartments are being built instead of the planned 20. This suggests that the license is irregular in multiple ways, a claim also made in the indirect protection lawsuit.
