Key points: The Junta de Gobierno Local by Logroño on 12 August 2026 approved the definitive sale of its 29.25 per cent share in plot E2 in the district of Valdegastea . The municipal share was awarded to Promociones Ilardiz, S. L. for €485,167.41, including VAT (IVA). According to the city, around twenty homes can be built on the site.
Background: The plot was previously held partly by the municipality in undivided co-ownership. Through the sale, the Logroño City Council aims to bring private building land into use and provide investors with planning certainty. The measure is part of a series of property transactions through which the city administration is making land available for housing and economic projects. The figure of planned homes in Valdegastea has been given as an estimate; no binding developer plans have yet been made public.
Attributed statements: Celia Sanz, spokesperson for the city’s governing team, announced the decision and terms after the meeting. The provisional award of plot M15P2 in the Polígono Industrial Las Cañas by means of Real Decreto 2560/1978 Greene Enterprise, S. L. for €879,862.45 (including IVA) was also approved. The award of a contract to develop and implement a digital twin for social services to Indra Soluciones Tecnologías de la Información S.L.U for €402,809 (including IVA) was also approved. In addition, plans were set in motion to renew heating systems in several municipal schools.
Assessment and implications: For Valdegastea, the sale opens up the possibility of building private housing on land that was previously partly publicly owned. It is not yet clear whether the roughly twenty planned homes will be market-rate properties or built in combination with support programmes. The awards in the industrial and IT sectors also point to an effort to strengthen Logroño’s economic base and modernise its administration.
Outstanding questions: The city has not provided a detailed timetable for the planning application, start of construction or completion in Valdegastea. No binding information is yet available on the final design, target market or pricing structure of the planned homes. Further progress will depend on the developer’s project documents and subsequent approval procedures.
