Numbers Slump
The natural park at ses Salinas received a total of 1.5 million visitors last year, more than seven times all of the rest of the Balearic natural parks put together. The environmental department at the Balearic Government last week revealed a total of 1,503,000 people visited ses Salinas, with the next popular being Cabrera natural park which received a miserly 76,541, up very slightly on the previous year.
However, whilst the picture at ses Salinas looked bright, the situation in the rest of the Balearics took a worrying turn as the number of visitors to the island's natural parks slumped by 63 per cent from 2006, despite an increase of 6 per cent on the mainland during the same period.
The question remains how reliable the statistic really is for ses Salinas, as most visitors to the beach were probably unaware they were even in a natural park.
The Island Council followed up the release of the statistics by revealing it would be restricting access to the park from next year. The plans of the new administration include improving the roads in the area with the installation of a bicycle lane, green verges on both sides and the burying of the existing overhead electricity cables. The transport minister, Albert Prats, then went further, saying he would try and re-organise the entrance of vehicles to the park with the use of a car park. Alternative transport will then be offered into the natural park, although no further information was given on the possibilities.
 
does this mean that port des torrent might be restored to its former glory, there is no way on earth that grotesque concrete tunnel can have had planning permission.

would love to see it demolished, and soon

Torn Down

The Coastal Authority last week began work to demolish 14 beach huts
in the es Codolar area.

The buildings in question were constructed without permission in the centre
of the beach located within the ses Salinas natural park.
In addition, an investigation over the last few summers showed many were being used
as illegal houses, and not one of them was being utilized for the storage of boats.

The demolition work will take around ten days to complete and forms part of a list
of 80 items the Coastal Authority will tear down over the next few months,
including buildings, terraces and swimming pools.


Meanwhile, the head of the Balearic Coastal Authority, Celesti Alomar,
claimed there would be no changes to the delimitation of the coastal borders
of San Juan and Formentera.
Both cases have caused major concerns within the Balearics, with many property owners
objecting to the new barriers which have far-reaching effects.
However, despite the recent protests, Alomar insisted neither would be altered
and that his department had worked very closely with the Town Halls
of both municipalities when marking the new coastal map.


Meanwhile, there was confusion elsewhere as the Coastal Authority made it clear
there would be no compromise when it came to dealing with restaurants, bars
and kiosks which had encroached on coastal land.
The Coastal department is currently taking direct action in Andalusia,
where their zero tolerance policy will see many establishments having to relocate,
at the very least.

However, it seems the establishments in ses Salinas could be saved,
as Alomar revealed they were currently studying the possibility
the restaurants and bars could sign some form of land lease over the next 60 years,
which would ensure the safety of the popular establishments.
He explained that 13 bars and restaurants had so far applied for such permission,
all situated in the natural park of ses Salinas.

The "loophole" could be possible due to a reference in the legislation of 1988
which states that if new boundary markings were made, those encroaching
on the old map, but not on the new one, could opt to lease their property
for the following 60 years.
However, he said this was just the first stage of a long process and that those
who were lawfully able to lease their properties would be allowed to do so.

Salinas Block

Plans to limit the traffic to ses Salinas have been put on hold
after the Island Councillor for Transport, Albert Prats, claimed the project
to revamp the area would take considerably more time.

At the moment initial plans have been produced which involve the rebuilding
of the ses Salinas road including a bicycle lane, the burying of overhead cables
in the area and the building of a large car park at the entrance to the park.

Limited access to the natural park is one of the key aims of the plan
with customers wishing to access the beach having to leave their vehicle
in the car park and hop on the new bus service which will be in operation.

However, it seems the plans will have to wait after Prats admitted the cost
of the entire project had surprised everyone involved, and that deals would now
have to be made to secure the finance.

He hoped work could begin in 2010,
but would know more towards the end of the year.

Park Debate

The largest car park in ses Salinas could remain closed this summer
if a dispute between the company which owns the land, Dunasal Park,
and the owners of the other car park, is not resolved in the next few weeks.
The car park in question has a total of 450 spaces and lies next door
to the 250-space car park owned by Ibifor.

The latter has managed both pay car parks for the last two years
after an agreement had been reached between the two companies.

However, this year Dunasal Park is asking for a 30 per cent increase in the amount
paid by Ibifor for the right to rent the parking spaces, charged at €4 per car
and €2 per moped.
However, Ibifor says this is simply not viable, and whilst they are prepared
to break even, they are not ready to lose money.
The problem would then result from the fact the larger car park is accessed
via land owned by Ibifor.
Therefore, if no agreement is reached,
right of entry to the car park could be denied.

The managing director of Ibifor, Joan Cardona, agreed all hope was not lost
and that both parties needed to work towards finding a solution,
as the closure of the car park would cause untold problems in the area this summer.

Traffic Flow

The re-organisation of traffic in ses Salinas will not happen in time for summer 2010, according to the Island Councillor for Traffic, Albert Prats. During comments made at the beginning of the week he confirmed the plan, which is set to limit vehicle numbers to the area, was some way behind schedule, and would be ready towards the end of 2010.

Prats had originally promised the plan would be completed for summer 2008 after announcing the idea just weeks after taking power. He blamed the delays on the sheer complexity of the project, which involves agreement between various different administrations.

Very simply put the plan is set to restructure traffic flow within the Natural Park, and mark out where visitors can and cannot park.

Noise

The Balearic Environment Commission have warned the San José Town Hall that they must control the volume of music from the beach bars in ses Salinas and es Cavallet, which are both part of the ses Salinas Natural Park. One of the conditions of this area being included in the Red Natura 2000, Natural Network, was that the level of music from loudspeakers should not disturb the fauna and that these areas should be “places of silence or highly sensitive zones”. Bars, restaurants and kiosks are not allowed to place loudspeakers on the exterior of their premises or near windows, and noise levels inside should not exceed fifty decibels.

 During last summer six disciplinary proceedings were taken out on five establishments, with fines handed out to three of them. Other infractions which had been committed included having more beach beds than the quota permitted, allowing vehicles to be parked in non-designated areas and distributing publicity flyers larger than the permitted size.
