The Supreme Court (TSJ) has ruled that Calp Town Council must pay 116,280 euros for the expropriation of the Ràfol plot of land, as opposed to the 2.3 million euros requested by the owners.

The plenary session of the Calp Town Council has approved to start the procedures for the creation of a family meeting point. The proposal was presented by the municipal group of Compromís and was supported by all the groups.
Family meeting points are spaces that facilitate the exchange of minors when there are complicated separation processes or when their mothers are victims of gender violence. The objective is to be able to comply with the visiting regimes avoiding complicated situations since there will be professionals who will facilitate these exchanges.
