La tensión existente entre el derecho urbanístico sancionatorio y el derecho a la vivienda digna: soluciones desde el test de proporcionalidad, la discrecionalidad administrativa y el arbitrio judicial para un caso del municipio de Mosquera – Cundinamarca

Abstract

The urban sanctioning procedure is an important tool to the public administration to achieve a correct planning of the territory and in this way, to reach the general interest. Nevertheless, when the administration uses this power might find an important difficulty, because the imposition of a sanction can generates a tension between fundamental rights (as the decent housing) and the general interest. For its part, the Constitutional Court has used the proportionality test to solve tensions between fundamental rights. So, the purpose of this document is to determine if the application of this test allows to overcome this vicissitude. Otherwise, this document will try to propose strategies which could facilitate to the administration the solution of this kind of cases.
