Answer

Can Palma require new housing projects to include space for local shops?

Yes, city regulations can be written to require commercial space on the ground floor or other social conditions in new developments. That kind of planning helps preserve everyday street life instead of turning entire corners into closed residential blocks. It can also support neighborhood services that residents actually use.
