The Urban Planning Management approves the La Máquina Grande action project

The Municipal Urban Planning Management of Málaga has approved the action project for the estate known as “La Máquina Grande”, according to the announcement published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Málaga (BOP) on October 26, 2026, under the official reference Edict 3497/2026. The agreement appears in section 3 of the gazette’s summary, specifically dedicated to the Municipal Urban Planning Management, and concerns an urban action located within the municipality of Málaga. The publication turns the agreement into a procedure with official publicity, upon which both the property ownership and the developers interested in its development depend.

The October 26, 2026 issue of the BOP of Málaga includes two announcements from the Málaga City Council in that same section 3: the approval of the action project for the “La Máquina Grande” estate (Edict 3497/2026) and the final approval of the detailed study for Carretería Street, numbers 32-34 (Edict 3677/2026). Both share the same issuing body, the Municipal Urban Planning Management, and both refer to intervention instruments regarding the current planning in the city.

The text of the official summary identifies the estate by its name—“La Máquina Grande”—and classifies the agreement as “approval of the action project,” although the published file does not detail the area’s surface, the intended use, or the associated municipal file number. The approval of an action project is the procedure that specifies the organization of an area and enables urban action on the estate, such that its publication in the provincial gazette opens the way for the next steps of development.

Official data of the announcement

• Resolving body: the Municipal Urban Planning Management of the Málaga City Council.
• Official document: Official Gazette of the Province of Málaga of October 26, 2026, section 3 of the summary.
• Official reference: Edict 3497/2026.
• Object: approval of the action project for the “La Máquina Grande” estate.
• Municipality: Málaga.

The insertion in the BOP provides the agreement with publicity toward third parties and places it within the ordinary administrative circuit of the Municipal Urban Planning Management, the body through which the Málaga City Council processes detailed studies, land redistributions, and action projects in the city.

A month of intense urban activity

The announcement of “La Máquina Grande” is not an isolated case. In recent weeks, the Municipal Urban Planning Management section of the BOP of Málaga has accumulated files of varying scope:

• October 9, 2026: initial approval of the detailed study for the “El Tomillar” land redistribution project (Edict 3846/2026).
• October 8, 2026: initial approval of the detailed study at Gregorio Diego Avenue, number 44 (Edict 3740/2026).
• October 6, 2026: public information period for the land redistribution project of sector SUP T-8 “Universidad” (Edict 3706/2026).
• October 2, 2026: initial approval of the detailed study of the Fair and Congress Palace Special Plan, PE-T.2 “Parque Ferial” (Edict 3530/2026).
• October 15, 2026: initial approval of the detailed study at Doctor Marañón Avenue, numbers 46 and 50 (Edict 3604/2026).
• September 16, 2026: public information period for the detailed study at Camino de Orozco Street, number 54 (file PL 65-2024, Edict 3151/2026).

Added to this, on an internal level, is the modification of the collective agreement of the Municipal Urban Planning Management of Málaga, published on October 5, 2026 (Edict 3485/2026), and the delegation and entrustment of public certification functions to the head of the Support Body of the Governing Board, disseminated on October 26, 2026 (Edict 3862/2026).

Carretería 32-34, final approval on the same day

Alongside the action project for “La Máquina Grande”, the bulletin of October 26, 2026 closes another file: the final approval of the detailed study at Carretería Street, numbers 32-34 (Edict 3677/2026). The contrast between both announcements summarizes the usual cycle of the Management: while some instruments reach final approval, others enter the bulletin in their approval phase, as is the case with the “La Máquina Grande” estate.

For the owners and developers involved, the key lies in the official reference: Edict 3497/2026 is the document that certifies the approval and the one that must be invoked in any subsequent inquiry or procedure before the Municipal Urban Planning Management or the Málaga City Council.

Why it matters

The approval of the action project at “La Máquina Grande” unlocks the administrative path for the development of this estate and incorporates it into the set of urban planning files that the city is resolving in the last quarter of 2026. For residents and the local real estate market, the announcement represents a sign of progress: the project ceases to be a proposal on paper and now has the formal backing of the municipal urban planning body, published in the official bulletin and, therefore, verifiable by any interested party.
