Palafrugell opens twelve fire‑prevention orders for landowners

The Palafrugell town council has issued twelve fire‑prevention requirements to landowners in 2026, more than double the number opened in 2025. The orders target parcels that do not comply with vegetation‑clearance rules aimed at reducing forest‑fire risk.

The measures are part of a broader municipal programme that maintains perimeter protection zones around all inhabited areas, expands a project to facilitate works for owners, and plans to increase resources for fire‑prevention activities in 2027. Non‑compliant owners face possible sanction procedures and fines. The council emphasizes that most owners have complied within the set deadlines.
