Residencial Playa Flamenca X

I have received a complaint from an owner that drivers have parked vehicles close to electricity and water meters making it impossible for people to open them to turn on water supplies or read meters. read more

For several weeks a builder’s skip has been on our urbanisation while work has taken place on two properties. The work was completed before Easter but the skip has not been removed. Sadly these skips, if left for any length of time, attract fly tipping and this skip is no exception. It’s attracted sheets of polystyrene, cardboard and assorted rubbish to be dumped despite the skip being full to the brim. As a result this has been blowing up and down the road leaving a dreadful mess, leading to several complaints.

This week we had our sewerage system inspected, cleaned and fumigated, under our contractual agreement.

I am pleased to tell owners that the re-grouting of the eastern pool is almost complete. Our maintenance company A.L. Limpiezas y Servicios have done an excellent job and the tiling and steps looks good. There is a small area of steps to retile and the pool will then be refilled. The company has given a five-year guarantee on this work. Once filled work will start on the regrouting of the western pool. It is important that all pool users obey the rules and shower before getting in the pool and every time they re-enter to wash off any sun oils, etc. These can seriously affect the chemical levels in the water and leads to damage to the grouting if not rectified quickly. Work will start soon on the repair work along the western road to fill the gap between the roadway and garage wall. This will include the laying of a conduit from the communications box to entry points within the garage to allow owners to have fibre optics to homes above garages. Finally I have to report disgusting occurrences within our urbanisation over recent weeks. On several Saturdays human excrement has been found complete with soiled toilet paper, close to parked cars and the likely culprit is a market trader – because it always happens on Saturdays. I shall be discussing with our administrator what action can be taken – by making the town hall and any market trader organisation aware of what is happening. It goes without saying we would like to catch the culprit, so those owners who are up and about early on Saturday mornings let us know if you see anything untoward.

There will be a full moon in Torrevieja on Saturday 22nd December. The Tourist office are suggesting the best place to see this incredible event is from the Juan Aparicio promenade at 7pm.

Today I joined a group of local urbanisation presidents in Orihuela Costa who were invited to a meeting by a new organisation called Agrupacion Electoral which is a citizens’ movement aimed at getting local councillors onto Orihuela Council at the elections in May. The following is a news story I have sent to the press. You will see how important it is now to get yourselves onto the voters’ list at the Town Hall – because time is running out.
