PUERTO MORELOS, Quintana Roo — A federal court in Quintana Roo has definitively invalidated the construction license granted for a condominium in Puerto Morelos for lacking the required Environmental Impact Statement (Manifestación de Impacto Ambiental, MIA) mandated by Mexican law.
The ruling represents a significant triumph for ecological protection, as it orders a halt to any progress on the construction work and prohibits the granting of new authorizations until the corresponding environmental studies are completed. The decision emerged from a legal review that revealed the project was initiated without the necessary evaluation, thereby violating constitutional rights and principles that ensure sustainability and the conservation of ecosystems.
It is relevant to highlight that, in the current context, various coastal zones in Quintana Roo face pressure from real estate developments that often ignore environmental requirements. The sentence sets a precedent that emphasizes the responsibility of municipal authorities and companies to follow established protocols, promoting greater vigilance and control over projects that threaten natural resources.
The resolution is still in the process of confirming its definitive execution, but it already represents a firm step in the defense of the environment in the region. Civil society remains vigilant to ensure that this and other decisions aimed at halting damage to coastal ecosystems are respected.
