Lónguida / Longida

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: Plan General (a full town plan), from 2016. The region's planning viewer ↗

The SIU does not map land classes here: the town plan is the source.

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

Is there water?

IGME records 3 wells and boreholes in Lónguida / Longida. Half of the 3 with a depth found water at 18–41 m.

Ground: 49% practically impermeable; 23% porous aquifer, high productivity; 16% low permeability, local groundwater only; 6.3% surface water body; 5.7% porous aquifer, medium productivity.

Choosing where to drill takes a hydrogeologist.
