Only the town hall can confirm it, in writing: ask for a certificado urbanístico.
Is there water?
IGME records 41 wells and boreholes in Fiñana. Half of the 38 with a depth found water at 30–100 m. Measured yields (25): 5–9 L/s, the middle half. 2 springs are recorded.
Ground: 79% practically impermeable; 14% porous aquifer, medium productivity; 6.8% porous aquifer, high productivity.
Choosing where to drill takes a hydrogeologist.
