Ruling paves way to develop most pristine Dominican beach
Ruling paves way to develop most pristine Dominican beach Santo Domingo.- A National District judge on Tuesday declared null and void the demarcations within the parcels 215-B-3 of Enriquillo township, Barahona province (southwest), for being part of Jaragua National Park, which includes the seven miles of beach at Bahia de las Aguilas. The ruling surmounts the last major hurdle for the government to develop the pristine beach near Pedernales, a case that has been in the courts since 1997. 1st Superior Land Court Chamber judge Adela Torres de la Cruz ordered Barahona Titles Registry to cancel the claims derived from surveyor boundaries in that parcel, restoring the validity of title No. 42 with the State´s property rights to 6,533 hectares. The judge also ordered the Regional Cadastral Directorate to revoke survey designations No.215-B-3, 215-B-3-C, 215-B-3-D, 215-B-3-F, 215-B-3-G and 215-B-3-H, assigned to the plots covered by the demarcation. The court ruled for the Justice Ministry´s request to annul the surveys and against the ownership claim filed by Ricardo, Eduardo Elias, Mauricio and Carolina Alicia Gadala Maria, as inheritors of Elias Gadala Maria.
