The Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources (Semarnat) has given the green light for a condominium project within a protected area in Punta Sam. The development will be built on a plot of land spanning 4,649 square meters.
The project plan includes an 11-story apartment building, which breaches existing regulations by featuring 37 apartments, significantly more than the permitted 17. According to the Environmental Impact Statement, the construction process is expected to last 30 months, with a 99-year lease for operation and maintenance.
Despite these violations, the project is already being marketed on real estate development platforms.
