Alignment

The alignment is the property limit on the public road set by the administration. No construction may encroach on the alignment.
On the other hand, an existing building affected by an alignment is subject to a simple easement of setback of the property and not to immediate destruction. No consolidation work can be undertaken except for rendering, roof repairs and interior fittings. This leads to the ruin of the building which cannot be rebuilt and is automatically acquired by the community as bare land.
