The Djadsal western Santa Maria was built behind the Beloriozonte without planning consent but this may have been rectified with a fine. The first Santa Maria block is occupied but owners are unable to get escrituras and so have difficulty in resale. Another 7 or 8 blocks are under construction leading in towards central Santa Maria on the Riu road.
