Borriol declares La Coma urbanization in breach and resolves its urbanizing agent

The Plenary of the Borriol City Council has declared the non-compliance of the urbanization works of La Coma and has terminated the status of urbanization agent of the company Urbanización La Coma S.A., according to the agreement adopted in the session of February 26, 2026. The announcement is published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Castellón no. 114, of September 22, 2026, Local Administration section, with the official reference 04143-2026-U. The resolution ends the administrative route and is disseminated under article 45.1.a) of Law 39/2015, of October 1, on the Common Administrative Procedure of Public Administrations.

The case dates back to the agreement of the Provincial Urban Planning Commission of the Provincial Delegation of Castellón from the session of July 13, 1978, which approved the Partial Plan of the La Coma Residential Zone and imposed specific conditions on the promoting entity. Among them was the obligation to deposit a bank guarantee for the execution of works and services in the amount of 14,500,000 pesetas, equivalent to 87,146.75 euros, in the Depositary of the Borriol City Council, which had to be reported to the Provincial Delegation. The agreement now published is based on the legal report of February 16, 2026, and the report of the Municipal Architect of September 16, 2025, which certifies the non-completion of the urbanization.

Dismissed allegations and technical file

The first point of the operative part dismisses the allegations presented by the interested parties, based on the legal grounds of the legal report of February 16, 2026 (Validation Code 3Z9ARPEWAMWYEKF32H6Y63T7R). The Plenary thus resolves the procedure relating to the urbanization and closes the route for prior claims at the municipal level.

The declaration of non-compliance is based on the report of the Municipal Architect of September 16, 2025 (CSV 47Y66Y4HLD9LKCNLGXPSQRZQE), which is part of the file and evidences the lack of completion of the works by the developer. The certificate of the agreement can be consulted with the Validation Code 3SXSWSJCT7635AF9PX57GJ76F on the municipal electronic office.

Non-compliance with the 1978 guarantee and termination of developer status

The agreement expressly declares the non-compliance with the specific conditions set by the Provincial Urban Planning Commission in 1978, including the establishment of the bank guarantee of 87,146.75 euros, which was never formalized in the municipal Depositary. On this basis, the Plenary terminates the status of urbanization agent—defined as “promoting entity”—of Urbanización La Coma S.A., for failure to comply with the duties to urbanize and maintain the urbanization.

The resolution also holds the co-owners of the private urbanization La Coma responsible for the pending works to be carried out, who must contribute to the common charges of any kind as established in their Statutes and based on the coefficients fixed therein. Likewise, it declares the need to execute the pending works to complete the urbanization, according to the technical report of September 16, 2025.

Five-year term, notifications, and appeals

In application of article 172.1.a) of the TRLOTUP, the Plenary adopts the necessary measures for the completion of the urbanization works within a maximum period of five years, extendable only once for five more years, as the executed works exceed 20% of the total.

The agreement is notified to:

• The company URCOMA SA.
• The Urban Interest Group of Phase 1B.
• The Community of Owners of Phase 1A and 1B and the General Assembly.
• All interested parties of Phases 1A and 1B.

Against the agreement, which exhausts the administrative route, an optional appeal for reversal (recurso potestativo de reposición) may be filed before the same body within one month, or a contentious-administrative appeal before the Contentious-Administrative Section of the Court of First Instance within two months, in accordance with articles 123 and 124 of Law 39/2015 and 8, 45, and 46 of Law 29/1998, of July 13. If the appeal for reversal is not resolved within one month, it will be understood as dismissed, and the contentious-administrative appeal may be filed within six months. The announcement is signed by the mayor, Héctor Ramos Portolés, in Borriol on March 3, 2026.

The decision directly affects the owners and developers of the residential sector La Coma, who see the City Council withdraw the status of developer from the promoting company and transfer the responsibility of funding the pending works to the co-owners. The five-year term, which is extendable, sets the calendar to complete an urbanization with more than four decades of unfulfilled conditions and opens the door to municipal intervention if the works are not executed.
