The Guimarães Municipal Council approved on Monday, by majority, the proposal to revise the Municipal Master Plan, a document that provides for an 18.55% increase in urban land in the municipality. The vote took place with the abstention of the councilors from the Socialist Party.
The municipal executive is led by Ricardo Araújo, who presented the proposal to revise the PDM. Following municipal council approval, the document now goes to the Municipal Assembly for consideration.
The planned increase of 18.55% in urban land represents a significant change in the spatial planning of the municipality, allowing new areas for urban development. The PDM revision establishes the guidelines for the territorial planning of the municipality.
