Ever since the Las Rotondas Shopping Centre in Puerto del Rosario opened there has been a legal battle and several court cases because they built it too big!
The southern part of the centre is the part that didn't have permission.
Today, a court in Las Palmas has ruled that it doesn't have to be demolished. https://www.ondafuerteventura.es/el-cent...emolicion/

The shopping centre is closed on Wednesday 7th October as it's a local bank holiday in the Municipality of Puerto del Rosario to celebrate their patron saint - Ntra. Sra. del Rosario.

The consistory of Puerto del Rosario reports that after 20 years of judicial litigation, the pressure on the demolition of a part of the Las Rotondas shopping center, located in Puerto del Rosario, ends its process after the communication of the ruling of the Supreme Court that does not admit to processing the appeal of cassation against the sentence of the TSJC that declared the non-execution of the previous sentence of the demolition of the Las Shopping Center Roundabouts for lack of sufficient foundation. With this, the process is finalized, concluding that this shopping center will not be demolished and the economic activity and employment that this great infrastructure aroused will be maintained, "fully integrated into the city and internalized among the citizens not only of Puerto del Rosario but of the whole island." After that, the agreement will be executed for the purpose of the General Urban Planning Plan in which the common spaces of the southern part will be transferred to the City Council for citizen services. The mayor of the City Council of Puerto del Rosario, Juan Jiménez, on behalf of the government team, shows "a special satisfaction after managing to unlock and overcome this issue of great impact and citizen sensitivity inherited and that today we put an end". It should be remembered that the City Council of Puerto del Rosario presented at the time to the competent Courts all the required documentation and proposed the appropriate alternatives to avoid the demolition, which would mean an unbearable economic damage for the municipal coffers to have to face possible compensation, in addition to the cost of the demolition works, and on the other hand, to avoid the loss of jobs linked to this great infrastructure.
