The owner of the Recart Fund confirmed to the municipality of Hualpen that will demolish the construction that was carried out in the Sanctuary of Nature.

After the confirmation by the Supreme Court of the municipal decree that ordered the demolition of the structure, the owner of the land informed the municipality that it will abide by the sentence and requested a period of 45 days to carry out the demolition.

Mayor Katherine Torres said that today is a great day for the defense of the Hualpén Nature Sanctuary, as the work was irregular, it did not have municipal permits, an environmental impact study or authorization from the Council of National Monuments.


The communal chief said that this ends the fight that began in October 2019 when neighbors and organizations informed the municipality of the irregular construction, which led to a series of complaints.

He reiterated the municipal position around the defense of the Hualpén Nature Sanctuary and Wetlands, emphasizing that any defense must be carried out with concrete actions, much more than with speeches or words.

And he recalled that this protective action adds to the suspension of construction permits throughout the Sanctuary, until the new Communal Regulatory Plan has been promulgated, matter that has been recently decreed by the municipality and confirmed by the Ministry of Housing through the extension of the term.
