Dominican construction licences: 203 issued in September, up 34% on August

MIVHED's open dataset lists 203 construction licences issued in September 2026, covering 966,304 square metres with a declared investment of RD$58.7 billion. Most licences: Santo Domingo (39), Distrito Nacional (38) and La Altagracia (30). Apartment buildings accounted for 94 of them. That is the most in any month since January 2022, when the dataset begins. A licence is permission to build, not finished construction, and the investment is the applicant's declared figure.

Why it matters

A leading indicator of what is about to be built across the country.

Statement by President Meloni on the State Police operation against youth crime

I wish to express my appreciation and gratitude to the State Police for the vast, nationwide operation against youth crime, which has led to hundreds of arrests, thousands of charges and the seizure of substantial quantities of drugs and weapons. This important result is the fruit of extraordinary prevention efforts, surveillance work and actions to combat illegality, confirming the daily commitment of our public security forces to guaranteeing citizens’ safety and restoring law and order to local areas. We cannot resign ourselves to the idea of violence, oppression and crime becoming normal behaviour, especially not among young people. The State is present and will continue to act with determination in order to combat all forms of illegality and guarantee citizens the right to live in safe cities and neighbourhoods. My thanks go to the men and women of the State Police for their professionalism and dedication and for the valuable work they do every day in the service of the nation. [ Courtesy translation ]

Operazione della Polizia di Stato contro la criminalità giovanile, dichiarazione del Presidente Meloni

Desidero esprimere il mio apprezzamento e la mia gratitudine alla Polizia di Stato per la vasta operazione condotta su tutto il territorio nazionale contro la criminalità giovanile, che ha portato a centinaia di arresti, migliaia di denunce e al sequestro di ingenti quantitativi di droga e armi. Un risultato importante, frutto di un lavoro straordinario di prevenzione, controllo e contrasto all'illegalità, che conferma l'impegno quotidiano delle nostre Forze dell'Ordine per garantire sicurezza ai cittadini e restituire legalità ai territori. Non possiamo rassegnarci all'idea che violenza, sopraffazione e criminalità diventino comportamenti normali, soprattutto tra i più giovani. Lo Stato c'è e continuerà ad agire con determinazione per contrastare ogni forma di illegalità e assicurare ai cittadini il diritto di vivere in città e quartieri sicuri. Alle donne e agli uomini della Polizia di Stato va il mio ringraziamento per la professionalità, la dedizione e il prezioso lavoro svolto ogni giorno al servizio della Nazione.

Our editorial position

Evidence before emphasis.

The value of a newspaper is the connection it makes between a place, a source and the wider world. We start with your region, preserve the original reporting, and keep what remains unknown in view.

07 · The Null Standard

Start at null. Publish only what the evidence earns.

  1. Start at null

    A publisher’s report is an attributed claim. Its source and publication date stay visible.

  2. Separate the layers

    Reporting, official announcements, editorial interpretation and conceptual artwork carry different jobs and labels.

  3. Preserve the unknown

    Missing evidence stays visible. A source check is not proof that every claim has been independently verified.

  4. Keep the record open

    Material errors belong at the corrections desk. Updated or withdrawn reporting must change what readers can see and hear.
