Yesterday, in a meeting held at its Palma office, the Board of Directors of the Port Authority of the Balearic Islands (APB) rejected the term extension and the additional prolongation requested regarding the administrative concession of public port domain for the "management of recreational boat mooring points at the Pantalán de la Cuarentena dock at the Port of Palma". The holder of the concession is Tanit Ibiza Port, S.A.
The company had requested a term extension of 3 years and 6 months under the provisions established in the Tenth Transitional Provision of the consolidated text of the Law on State Ports and the Merchant Navy, and an additional prolongation of 6 years and 3 months requested under Article 82.2.b) of said text.
Both requests were turned down as the Board of Directors of the Port Authority deemed that there was no justification whatsoever for substituting the current floating dock attached to the main dock on the promenade side for a fixed reinforced-concrete one, as the boats that currently use it have no need for a fixed dock.
