Answer
What is the best way to handle a nice but unofficial path feature in Mallorca?
The best outcome is usually not immediate removal, but a practical agreement. If the feature is useful and well-liked, the donor and the authorities can work out ownership, maintenance, and liability so it becomes a proper community asset. That approach preserves the idea while reducing future problems.
