Funes

Can you build a house on rustic land?

Navarre allows a new house on rustic land only where the town plan provides for it, on at least 1 ha.

DFL 1/2017, art. 115. A town plan can be stricter.

Plan in force: Normas Subsidiarias (an older, simpler plan), from 1998. The region's planning viewer ↗

The national urban information system (SIU) maps the land class for 100% of the municipality.

Only the town hall can confirm it, in writing: ask for a certificado urbanístico.

Is there water?

IGME records 8 wells and boreholes in Funes. Half of the 5 with a depth found water at 7–14 m.

Ground: 43% practically impermeable; 28% porous aquifer, medium productivity; 28% porous aquifer, high productivity.

Choosing where to drill takes a hydrogeologist.
