The joint committee also aims to establish the basic guidelines for the release of the Palma promenade to the city council, agreeing on the boundaries, the facilities to be transferred, reserving the right to access port facilities, and all other issues that are required for the promenade road to come under municipal jurisdiction.
Similarly, the joint committee will also deal with and analyse all the issues of interest that could provide better services to port users, residents, and visitors to the city.
The committee members are Juan Carlos Plaza Plaza, Jorge Nasarre López, and José Ignacio Arroyo Cabeza from the APB, and Fernando González Moreno, Bartolomé Abad Socías, and José Alejandro Asensi López from Palma City Council.
