Alcañiz opens public information period for the environmental license of a dental clinic

The Alcañiz City Council has opened for public consultation the application for an environmental license for a classified activity for a dental clinic located at Plaza Paola Blasco 2, local 19, in Alcañiz (Teruel). The announcement, with reference No. 2025-3881, is published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Teruel number 185, corresponding to September 28, 2026. Those who consider themselves affected have fifteen calendar days to submit allegations.

The publication is carried out in compliance with the provisions of article 77.3 of Law 11/2014, of December 4, on Environmental Prevention and Protection of Aragon, which requires the opening of a public information process during the processing of environmental license files for classified activities. The objective is for any person who may be affected by the activity to be able to examine the file and present the observations they deem appropriate before the authorization is resolved.

The file and the requested activity

The data contained in the official announcement are as follows:

• Procedure: application for an environmental license for a classified activity.
• File number: 1331747Z.
• License number: 21/2024.
• Applicant: Pilar Clavero Ruiz.
• Activity: dental clinic.
• Location: Plaza Paola Blasco 2, local 19, Alcañiz (Teruel).
• Instructing body: Alcañiz City Council.

The file is being processed at the Alcañiz town hall, which is the competent administration to grant the environmental license for classified activities within the municipal scope. The projected activity is a private health-care use, subject to Aragonese environmental regulations due to its possible impact on the urban environment.

Allegations within fifteen calendar days

Observations or allegations must be submitted via a written document addressed to the General Electronic Registry of the Alcañiz City Council. The enabled period is fifteen calendar days, counted from the day following the date of publication or notification of the announcement.

The process is open to those who consider themselves affected in any way by the activity for which the granting of the license is requested, without the announcement detailing other additional conditions for participation. Once this period has elapsed without contributions, the procedure will continue its ordinary course until the corresponding resolution.

Legal framework and scope of the process

The environmental license for a classified activity is the municipal authorization required in Aragon for certain activities and installations that may generate nuisances, risks, or environmental impacts. Law 11/2014, of December 4, regulates the procedure and establishes public information as a guarantee of citizen participation prior to the administrative decision.

The announcement is electronically signed in Alcañiz and disseminated through the Official Gazette of the Province of Teruel, edited by the Provincial Council of Teruel, which is the official channel for publicizing the acts of the Teruel municipal councils.

The opening of this procedure allows residents, associations, and any interested party to learn in advance about the establishment of a new dental clinic in the center of Alcañiz and to express their views on its possible effects before the Alcañiz City Council resolves the license. The fifteen-calendar-day period is, therefore, the only formal window for citizen participation in this file.
