The pressure from the real estate market on the agricultural areas of Estreito de Câmara de Lobos has become visible through a significant change: the traditional institutional harvest changed venues this year, no longer taking place at the usual location due to the construction of a private development in the area.
Miguel Albuquerque, president of the Regional Government of Madeira, directly responded to this situation on the sidelines of the Harvest Festival, revealing the volume of public housing planned for the municipality of Câmara de Lobos as a way to mitigate the housing shortage in the region.
The official pointed to a number of 216 public housing units planned for delivery in the municipality, thereby seeking to address growing concerns related to access to housing in the area.
The article, which appears truncated, indicated that Albuquerque was specifically talking about the projects for Câmara de Lobos, suggesting that the regional government president's intervention aimed to demonstrate a concrete response to the real estate pressures affecting the territory and local agricultural activity.
