The new master plan of Bulgaria's coastal municipality of Tsarevo envisions an enlargement of the areas where construction would be allowed.
The new plan included all areas, bordering on terrains already designated for construction in the municipality, investor.bg said.
Some of the newly included areas in the plan were part of the Strandja nature park, but the municipality said that construction in those areas should correspond to the legislation for construction in nature parks and could only be started after approval from the Environment and Water Affairs Ministry.
The plan offered property exchange as a way to keep the absolute size of the area of Strandja nature park by offering other, larger, plots instead of the Strandja areas, which had now been included in the zoning plan of the municipality.
The master plan would be discussed in public on January 11 2008, a media statement from the municipality said.
