Answer

Are municipal inspections enough to prevent building collapses in Palma's Old Town?

Municipal inspections can help, but they are not a complete safeguard on their own. In Palma’s Old Town, older buildings, tight spaces, and frequent renovations mean that good planning, qualified contractors, and clear reporting rules are just as important as public oversight.
