Xàbia residents who want to carry out works and reforms will have to think more carefully, and is that the slow and expensive process of obtaining a license is now added a disproportionate increase in the Tax on Buildings, Installations and Works, known by the ICIO and the increase in the Rate for Urban Development Procedures, known by the TAMU.
