Despite assurances from the town's mayor, Candido Trabalon, that the homes will not be demolished, residents remain sceptical and fear that regional government will override the decision made by the local council.
The homes, the majority of which belong to British expats, were deemed illegal in 2007 by the Andalucia regional government after being built on non-urban land from 2004.
According to regional government, the local council's proposed urbanisation of 358 hectares of land, on which many new expat developments had already been built, did not adhere to a planning legislation that came into effect in 2003.
Flanked by his legal team and facing 12 separate criminal proceedings for allegedly authorising the building of the illegal homes, the mayor explained at a meeting with residents that Zurgena council would grant provisional approval to its entire town plan in March with the intention of submitting it to the regional government."
