Constructions Lacking
Permits On The Decline
Construction projects
without the respective
permits have decreased
in Costa Rica by 5% this
year, compared to 2007,
according to a study
conducted by the
Engineers and Architects
Federated Association (CFIA).
Last year, 27%of
constructions were done
without a permit.
These numbers are based
on inspections done
among 1,336 projects
during the first quarter
of 2008 in 35 of the
country’s 81 cantons.
Regions showing the
highest improvement in
this category include
the Caribbean, North
Pacific and Central
Pacific.
However, along the Pacific Coast — where the construction boom continues —
the number of
non-compliant
construction projects is
still high.
