Residencial Playa Flamenca X

The memorial seat in the eastern pool is in need of replacing. it was provided for the community many years ago in memory of the wife of an owner. He has requested that his plaque is placed on a new seat and we have another owner who would wish a plaque he is buying to be placed there in memory of his wife. The seat we are considering buying costs about €115 (delivery extra). If anyone has any alternative options please let us know, similarly if anyone has an objection, let us know. If we have a favourable response we will go ahead with the purchase in the next 14 days.

I have been informed that our maintenance company has changed its name to maintenimientossureste (in English Maintenance Southeast) and anyone wishing to contact them on any matter can do so using the read more

On our return to Spain from the UK we discovered some cement had dropped from under our roof tiles onto our patio. Had this hit us it would have been very serious. It got us looking at the condition read more

Recently the drain cleaning company visited for a 6-monthly inspection and clean. They found very few cockroaches in our drains and all the sewers were in good condition. The only cockroach infestation was along the ravine road and this has now been extensively treated.

It has come to my attention that someone may be considering doing works on urbanisation property. I have consulted our administrator on this matter and I wish to make my position totally clear. No-one has any authority to interfere with urbanisation property without permission and certainly when it is in direct conflict with the wishes of the president and works not agreed by the AGM. If a water test is carried out or any other works done without approval then those people will be accountable for paying the bill and the HC will not pay for any unapproved works. I cannot allow a free-for-all to develop which could be to the detriment of our urbanisation as a whole.

I have to report to the urbanisation a difficult situation which has developed.

Four years ago we had walkway repair works carried out on the northern walkway to put an end to occasional leaks which read more

During the past month I have received several complaints from owners concerning disturbances caused by neighbours. This is something that seems to happen regularly and arises because a few people do not take into consideration what effect their actions  have on others. The first problem is people socialising (and no doubt under the effect of alcohol getting louder and louder) on their patios late into the evening and night. Sound travels a great distance at night and can be particularly annoying for people trying to sleep and having their windows open. The other problem is barking dogs. Some dog owners leave their animals unattended for hours or leave them on patios allowing them to bark at anyone or anything passing.  This is obviously particularly annoying to any near neighbour. I have discussed these problems with our administrator who recommends that people should report such incidents directly to police who will attend and deal with the situation – no doubt more effectively than a letter from me as president. The local police in Orihuela Costa can be contacted on 649900304 (mobile) and 966760000 (landline). Apparently a quicker and more effective response is achieved by calling the mobile phone number.

I would like to thank the people who removed the garden rubbish from our urbanisation road hours after it appeared on our website.

It has come to my attention that an owner has abandoned garden rubbish in an urbanisation road. This is against urbanisation rules and taken seriously because it detracts from the area as a whole. This is part of an email I have received from an owner: “Last Saturday whilst the market was on, someone in our urbanisation cut back their palm tree(s) and left the rubbish by the community’s green bin which had been moved onto our roadway whilst the market was on. I can fully understand this for that time. “However the council cleaners moved the bin back into the road and whoever it was that left their garden rubbish has not moved it to the roadside by the bin. The rubbish is still on our roadway and I find this unacceptable that the person responsible has not been back and moved it.”
